Ya, well, the average life expectancy for those folks living thousands of years ago, was about 35 years.

We've learned a lot about general health issues, and sanitary practices, and pasteurization is one of those wonderful things, in my opinion, that contributes to the long life spans we enjoy today.

I do agree however, that there are points to be made on both sides of the issue.
