Description:
============================================================
the Procrastination Clock statistically calculates the 
remaining amount of time left in your life base on your 
Birthday, Gender, and Race.

Future versions of the Procrastination Clock will more 
accurately predict the remaining time based on these
additional factors:
	Height & Weight
	Smoking & Drinking Habits
	Medical conditions
	Family medical history
	Marital & Economic status

The information used in the Procrastination Clock was
supplied by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
and the National Center for Health Statistics.

the Procrastination Clock is for entertainment purposes only.
