This suggests that people who are living longer in Western countries
as a result of diet and medical advances will apparently
"stay out" longer than those living in Third World countries
where the mortality rate is high and longevity low.

On the other hand, past-life regressions done by Edgar Cayce,
Helen Wambach, Dr. Ian Stevenson and others have shown
that 20 or 30 year periods between lifetimes are not
uncommon.
