Outnumbered by the girls, he's the last man standing
With the death in Barbados on Thursday of James Emmanuel ''Doc''
Sisnett, at the age of 113 years and 90 days, Jiroemon Kimura, of Japan,
has become the last man alive to have been born in the 19th century.
Literally the last man. There are, according to the
Gerontolgy Research Group at UCLA, 21 women born before New Year's Day,
1901, who are still with us, most of them living in the United States or
Japan, with others in Europe and Canada.
