Yes, worth noticing that, isn't it?

The way things are going, I'd have thought that 639 years is a very
optimistic estimate for anyone to be around. (Not so when that organ
was made, it turns out.)

As J.M.Keynes pointed out, in the long run *we are all dead*. That's
why the vast majority of people can't be bothered with, or haven't the
imagination to think about, 'the long run'.
