How old is very old? July 5, 2008

Posted by Al in : educational,interesting,website , trackback

This is an interesting website – full of data on ages of various living creatures. If you follow this link then you should see the ages of some of the longest lived creatures, with a sponge weighing in at 15,000 years old! Quite how you measure the age of a sponge is a mystery to me, but I’ll trust the guys who measured it had some form of scientific method. Number 4 in the list is a quahog, which means Family Guy lives in a town named after a clam.
