The SSA life expectancy is based on people who have reached 65 years of age. Once you reach 65 you have a greater life expectancy. Since GGPA has reached 65 (and beyond) he has a longer life expectancy.
I'm aware of that.
I was speaking generally -- the average life expectancy is 78, and so a person could fairly and accurately say that someone over 70 is an older adult.
It's not an insult, and I didn't take the OP's referring to him that way as intended to be insulting or offensive.
(moo, etcetera, etcetera)
