Yes, I've seen that article.

It is also, in many, many instances, linked with obesity, high blood

pressure, type two diabetes, high cholesterol, congestive heart failure,

and more.

My thought is that if you have apnea, and you survive all the rest of the

co-morbidities to make it to old age, you're a pretty tough old bird, and

Death is going to have a hard time adding you to his collection, apnea or

not.
