COMMENTARY     

Warren Brown-Pounds
2nd December 2009 		I am doing a time-series econmetrics project and I need data from 1960-present on the average life expectancy at birth of as many countries as I can get. My two questions are 1.) can I use your data and 2.) would I be able to get access to the data in excell format?
Thanks!
