--part1_26.1a3d3b2.25d2fe89_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit This came from another list I am on. I always wondered if there was an easier way to figure a birthdate when you only know how old and death date of a person. Here it is: your can figure it from the information given on the email or you can go to the webpage and it has a chart you fill in with the information and it will figure it for you. I'm sure it is much more accurate then the way I do it-counting on my fingers!! :)) Have a great day.
