You could maybe get email servers to monitor outgoings from your inbox. After a certain amount of time (like maybe receiving emails from your service provider asking "are you dead?") the server could start issuing probabillities about whether X or Y is deadbased on a statistically unbiased sample of records from the centres of birth deaths and marriages. If nothing else you could at least appologise in correspondences by saying, I'm sorry, I've been 31.6 % dead since yesterday. Who could fail to sympathise? Anyone want to pay me for this business enterprise?
