Folks are getting old. 60 is the new 70 and not the other way around (as "scientists" expected). Not in my experience. I’m 67, and I feel better than I did in my 20’s. Resting heart rate in the 50’s, blood pressure 110/60. On 01/01/2017 01:15 PM, 'Rick Archer' r...@searchsummit.com <mailto:r...@searchsummit.com> [FairfieldLife] wrote: What did Amalia die from?

The calculus of aging in TM.. Some of what we can see in these lists is a natural aging-out of the Post-War Cohort, of the people who were early with Maharishi in the very early SRM movement, the Walter Koch and Charlie Lutes generation of TM. Now what we are seeing in TM is an accelerating rate of attrition to aging-out of the Boomer I and Boomer II’s. Interestingly, the cusp time period where the Boomers I and Boomers II met was the time frame where TM took off in popular (college undergrad, grad student, professor-age) culture for a time. A lot of the TM movement intake happened in those years 1968-76, over the cusp of the Boomers I and II. You can see this particular cusp in the age span of meditators in the Dome or at campus meetings of the TM community now. The WWII generation is pretty much gone from the ranks of TM now. The Post-War Cohort are pretty gone or geriatric now and the Boomers I are increasingly shuffling or gone on. Boomers II are increasingly ‘in diminish’. Time is short regardless. Post-War Cohort Born: 1928-1945 Coming of Age: 1946-1963 Age in 2004: 59 to 76 Current Population: 41 million (declining) Boomers I or The Baby Boomers Born: 1946-1954 Coming of Age: 1963-1972 Age in 2004: 50-58 Current Population: 33 million Boomers II or Generation Jones Born: 1955-1965 Coming of Age: 1973-1983 Age in 2004: 39 to 49 Current Population: 49 million For a long time the Baby Boomers were defined as those born between 1945 and 1964. That would make the generation huge (71 million) and encompass people who were 20 years apart in age. It didn't compute to have those born in 1964 compared with those born in 1946. http://www.socialmarketing.org/newsletter/features/generation2.htm ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com <mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com> , <dhamiltony2k5@... <mailto:dhamiltony2k5@...> > wrote : Robert Vaughn Abrams • April 13, 1949 • Seattle, WA • August 12, 1997 • North Carolina Roy Adams • February 16, 1949 • August, 1980 • California Jefferson Aikens • December, 2015 • Fairfield, Iowa Antoinette F.
