dead.atyourage.com
Not exactly all in the best possible taste but dead.atyourage.com will allow you to figure out who exactly you’ve managed to live longer than so far, and will provide you with your next target person…
For example, people who I have lived less than a year longer than include John Belushi and Eva Braun. Whereas I have so far lived about two years longer than either Keith Moon or Bill Hicks. I’m targetting Emma Faust Tillman.
Although apparently if I catch up with her, I’m still nowhere near the record holder, who is probably more famous for his death than for living a particularly long time…
If you are 1841 years and 351 days old today…
You’ve outlived Julius Caesar by about 4 months. He was a Governor of Roman Spain and Roman Gaul and later consul and dictator of the Roman Empire.
Hmm. I suspect their calculations may have gone somewhat awry for people born in times B.C. Most accounts seem to have wor Julius born around 100 BC, and being et tu‘d by Brutus in 44 B.C. Which I would presume made him aged around 55 (taking when his birthday was into consideration).
So, will anyone get anywhere near Julius’s record? Well, I hope the subject of tomorrow’s topic gives it a bloody good go…

Though I’m interested to learn that I’ve apparently outlived Freddie Mercury, I can’t have any trust in a site which tells me that Pink Floyd’s “Waiting for the Worms” is a song about death. Which it isn’t.

My husband has outlived Franz Kafka by two weeks. No doubt he would find this troubling.

This is an issue that has been the subject of much dteabe through the decades. There is some evidence on both sides.At least one radar outpost did detect the incoming invasion. Whether they mis-interpreted it as US aircraft inbound to Hickham or a US Navy exercise has been dteabed significantly.The Japanese ambassador to the US was to deliver a declaration of war to Congress and the White House. This was actually delivered after the attack due to scheduling snafus on the Japanese side and a dismissive attitude towards to Japanese ambassador.Modern military doctrine holds it unthinkable that the entire fleet would be in one place at one time, rendering it as a sitting duck. Admiral Husband Kimmel, chief of the naval fleet at Pearl Harbor was implicated in the attack for this reason but was never punished. He demanded trial by Court Martial to clear his name but this never occurred. The repercussions of Pearl Harbor essentially killed off his Naval career. Whether he had information that would have implicated the Roosevelt administration in the attack that would have become public knowledge at trial or whether he was simply a scape-goat for the administration are unknown though there is much speculation on both sides there.Roosevelt knew that US involvement in WWII was inevitable and necessary to stop the advance of both Hitler and Hirohito. However there was a strong popular isolationist feeling in the US at that time. The peace movement of the 1930s and very early 1940s made the peace movement of the Vietnam era look tame by comparison. Most Americans wanted no part of either an Asian or European war, feeling that it was their problem, not ours. The allegation has been made that Roosevelt either tacitly allowed Pearl Harbor to occur by ignoring intelligence information that indicated it was eminent (sound familiar?) or that even worse, he ordered the Pacific Fleet to Pearl Harbor (as an impossible to ignore target for Japan) under the cover of classified orders that remain classified to this day. The third theory of course is that the administration and the Navy were both too stupid (or cocky) to believe that there was a viable threat (sound familiar again?) and that lead to the attack.The results of the attack are pretty clear. The US immediately became involved in both theaters, simultaneously declaring war on Japan (for the attack) and Germany (who had a treaty with Japan) and bringing the US into the fray. The attack immediately galvanized American feelings towards the war effort as a victim of imperialist aggression.There has been much speculation as to whether the US would have ever entered WWII without the attack on Pearl Harbor though most military historians agree that it would have been inevitable. About the only issues in contention are when and would it have been soon enough. If the US entry had only been delayed a few months it’s likely that the outcome would have been the same. However had the US waited until Britain fell to Hitler probably in late 1942 or early 1943 or so the outcome could have been far different. We would not have had a base in Europe to launch the attacks on the German war machine, at least without liberating England first. That would have been an extremely difficult task by any military measure. Had that given Hitler enough time to complete his heavy water experiments and complete his own nuclear weapons development program, all of Europe would have fallen as would have the Soviet Union and very possibly the US as well. Some theorize that the US may have been able to muster sufficient defense to prevent an invasion of the US mainland or at least forestall it long enough for us to complete the Manhattan Project it’s very likely that WWI would have escalated into a significant nuclear exchange between the US and the Axis forces. Germany didn’t have any long-range bombers that could have delivered that to the US mainland, at least in the early to mid 1940s but if they had successfully invaded England (and some say, honored the pact with Stalin) there’s little doubt that they would have had the time to develop such a platform. And had they advanced their rocket expertise to inter-continental range or developed a successful mid-range sea-launched missile there’s little doubt that DC would have been a target as would have much of the US’ industrial base and financial centers. And had they shared that technology with Japan, we could have had nuclear strikes raining down from both coasts. I shudder to think what the outcome of such a calamitous situation would have been.
