Is this an indication of a drop in death rate because surviving middle-age is surprising in this group? (And is smoking included?)<BR/><BR/>Related question. Is there any pattern of peaks like this in terms of vehicular-accident deaths? And smoking-related deaths for that matter. <BR/><BR/>Finally, since you got me speculating, I wonder how one factor out correlation among vehicular-smoking-substance-abuse.
