Grump :-( I'm sorry, but I have to say that "old" has nothing to do with the "grouch" here, as I happen to agree strongly and while I'm solidly in middle age (and have the iffy knees and the spread to prove it) I still have a few years of sending back the AARP recruitment mailers left. It ain't about age. That swill's just bad. -- R.
