<<It is also a challenge to be staring "50" in the face and not being at all prepared since you didn't expect to live beyond 30. >>

So what row on that bus were you on? I don't recall seeing you there. Yes it seems we are uniquely prepared to field marketing schemes aimed at the "holy sh#$ I lived past 30!" crowd. All I can say is it's a good thing people like Keith Richards were around, otherwise more people would have experimented with drugs. As it was there was barely enough to go around

Yes it does seem now that we have outlived our initial life expectancy and must now strive to not outlive our usefulness.

Now *that's* going to be a challenge!
