When my father reached 70, he remarked to me, "Well, I've got my
three score and ten. Everything from here on is a free ride."
All but the last of the ensuing 14 years were, if not entirely devoid
of onerous episodes, pretty much good years for him.
I'm only a few months younger than Ray and also moderately grouchy
about the state of the world so I take heart from your prediction,
Keith.
