Do tall people die sooner?

Hey everyone. This is my first question on MetaFilter. I am six foot six tall and I am worried because what I have been reading says that shorter people have longer lifespans. Is this true? This is greatly unsettling me and quite demoralizing. I want to live a long life. Can any of you tell me what you know on this matter? Thanks!

Hi Than, I think you wanted this on Ask.Metafilter.com. It's an easy mistake to make; you'll hear from a moderator.
