Sure, given that you keep repeating the same stuff again and
again.

Care to be specific.

I work in a research place, one of the top ones in the country.

How do you know? You don't know what I'm involved in or whom
I know afterall
you thought I was a web designer.

My career has involved helping people and nothing but
helping people for 40+ years, Steve.

Nothing you do now, or say now, or ever, can match
that length of service.

> you put people down

Really. By saying that you have no interest in learning
how to write the English language that's putting you
down putting you down.

It's to YOUR benefit that you learn how to write better
Steve.

My major concern in life is education. We are failing as
a nation in educating our youth. So many people drop out
of school that we are in grave danger of de-stablizing the
country because of it.

The only way to get people to care about pollution is
for them to be educated. If they don't have the basics,
or even know how pollution is caused, do you seriously
think anyone will care about what you, personally, are trying to
tell them about it?

There's something like 50,000 people in the US who are
100 or older and many of them are active.

It's one factor. I simply don't buy that it's the most important factor.
I think their genes and how their immune systems work are the
deciding factors in their longevity.
