We gage that our year is an earth year... But did you know that a biological year is actually 9 months... Kinda the same idea as dog years being 7 years for every one year. What do people think of this?

i never knew this. i kinda sucks though. i mean can't it least be 13 months? that's not much to ask or obviously it is. its only 1 more month then a calendar year? well there's still stem cell therapy in the next 25 years. i'll probably still be around if the whole world doesn't go nuts on one another as well not having a freak accident.

Its also kinda cool think about it... How old are people really when they die?

I didn't know this, how can that be possible? Is it based on the moon?

No its actually based on the human gestational period... Biologically every living thing except plants ages one year for their gestational period.
