Subject: [CR]Age of list members

I was rather happy to see that most list members are about my age (52) or a tad younger. I was shocked to find out that there are no members older than 75. I feel pretty healthy nowadays. What am I supposed to do when I turn 76? Am I supposed to give up collecting and repairing classic bikes and just drive my classic car up to Pebble beach and play shuffleboard? With all humility, I believe the boomer generation will continue to lead the world into ecological and geopolitical sanity up to our last dying breath. I love the Beat generation that came right before me, but few of them fell in love with tubes and lugs the way the frisbee throwing, dope smoking, anti war rallying free lovers like me did. Rest in peace Allen Ginsberg.
