American Experience Table
Categories: Education
A list of every episode of the PBS series The American Experience. Check out the one on Eugene O'Neill.
Okay, actually, it's more morbid than Eugene O'Neill, if such a thing is possible. The American Experience Table is a data set showing at what point large numbers of Americans have died. Insurance companies use it to create actuarial tables so they can set rates properly, basically betting on when you are going to die. "It was like walking on the bottom of the sea, as if I had drowned long ago." No doubt, Gene.
