Whoa! Scratch that men's list. After I sent it, I did what I should
have done before I sent it: checked the unlikely possibility of only
one masters on the world list. I've already found several more, so will
send both lists again tomorrow.
Sorry

My procedure is to sort Mirko Jalava's 2008 World Deep Lists
<tilastopaja.org> for each event by year of birth, starting with 1973
and backward from there, to identify all athletes on the list of
masters age levels (35 and older on the date of competition). In
summarizing the lists, I've bold-faced the data for the oldest on the
list, and also have noted the youngest athlete on the world list in
each event.
