	REAGAN SMASH!

	Interesting how it seems to be mostly the really early ones (the Adamses, Jefferson, Madison) and then the really recent guys (Nixon onward), with the exceptions of Truman and Hoover (?). What happened to all the guys in the middle, I wonder, besides the obvious assassination victims?

	Quite a gap between Adams II and Hoover

	There was no way I could type them all in 1 minute... I gotta learn to type better!

	I figured it was just President who reached the age of 80 while in office. Luckily I guessed Reagan first so I knew it must have been out of office. Still, was confusing for a bit.

	Maybe quiz should be reworded to say, "Presidents who lived to at least 80," or "former Presidents who reached 80" so there's no confusion.

	Got Madison as my last one with exactly 1 second on the clock. Tough quiz.

	2 minutes be better.

	Interesting to see Hoover at less than 50% since it's his photo that's on the front page.

	great quiz! but I do agree with "juviejay", the quiz should be re titled "Presidents who lived to at least 80"

	MisterPenguin:	Jan 5th, 2011 at 21:41 GMT	-2 points
	I think that the fact that I went to JMU is the only reason I got Madison.

	SpeedyY:	Jan 9th, 2011 at 17:06 GMT	2 points
	sigh... I didn't bother typing in some of the first presidents because I though they wouldn't have lived pass 80, considering that in the 1700's and 1800's people didn't live as long as today.

	cocky:	Feb 4th, 2011 at 14:24 GMT	2 points
	I think a shorter life expectancy was due mainly to no vaccinations against measles, mumps, smallpox and no modern medical treatments for other ailments. As long as you didn't get sick, you probably lived as long as people do today. Now that people don't suffer from diseasers we can prevent or easily cure, the overall average lifespan goes up.

	Martin Van Buren: 79 years, 231 days. "Missed it by THAT much."

	8/11... so close! never would have suspected the early ones though...

	ILoveSBSP:	Aug 29th, 2011 at 05:58 GMT	1 point
	6/11 I almost forgot there is a time limit.

	Excellent quiz. A bit of trivia: John Adams held the record for longest-lived president from 1803, when he surpassed George Washington's age, until 2001, when Ronald Reagan broke it. He was a long-lived fellow.
