If <me> denotes me in an enduring sense, i.e. I am the same person I was yesterday, then my age is a function of time, I'm older today than I was yesterday. In that sense of person, a dead person can/does have an age - a function of time. I'll leave it to others to choose which ranges of time that function has a defined value for and indeed what the range of that function is, i.e. whether it includes <undefined>. Unless you want to explore issues involving change over time, it is simpler to stick to examples like date of birth/death. Brian
