摘要：
We focus on the widely used method of J.R. Gott III for predicting future Lifetime using only present age as confusion still reigns about whether it is justified. We provide a focused and precise examination of the method so that its validity or otherwise may be established unambiguously. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
