Life expectancy varies widely between countries.  When someone moves to
a new country, what best predicts their lifespan?  Country of origin? 
Or country of destination?

  "He was thinking that Prince Andrei was in error and did not see the
   true light, and that he, Pierre, ought to come to his aid, to 
   enlighten and uplift him.  But no sooner had he thought out what he 
   should say and how to say it than he foresaw that Prince Andrei, 
   with one word, a single argument, would discredit all his teachings, 
   and he was afraid to begin, afraid to expose to possible ridicule 
   what he cherished and held sacred."     
                   Leo Tolstoy, *War and Peace*
