The last person born in the 1800s died last week.

In the USA for the first time since the colonial era, the number of deaths of whites exceeded the number of births.

According to Wiki (take it for what it is) there are still a handful people, born before 1900, alive.

There are a number of people still alive who were born pre 1900 according to Guiness amd the NYTimes. Many of them are Japanese. I am convinced that there must be a lot of undocumented people of a similar age or even older.

Now they are killing us.  I knew I wasn't getting enough sex.  I would imagine more Republicans died than were born as well.
