Hi, All. I'm 63 and I too have had the internal video tour. The Doc's only comments were:- "Nice cleanout job" and "See you in 5 years". This Thursday is annual checkup time and my only qualms are the prostate finger test. I'd get really upset if he tested it with both hands on my shoulders! (Perhaps I should have sent this to the other, more liberal, list?) Get tested! It may just save your life! Diesel content, Tomorrow, Wednesday, is "pull the head off my 2.5 turbo in the freezing cold". Check your dipsticks. Fred Moir Lynn MA Dieselitis Frigititus
