["Franklin W. Davis" <knarfme AT comcast.net>]

  Hi clansgian...do you have a first name?
  Well...ya won't hear me complainin' about lack of work...I'm seventy years 
old and still goin' strong...don't think I will be seizing up and 
deteriorating any time soon....at least I hope not...:-)
  I quit smoking cold turkey little over two years ago...so that has helped 
my health a bit. Smoked anything that would burn for over fifty-five years.
  Retired ten years ago from power generation...worked in operations in coal 
fired power plants. Franklin

This is so true, James .... or spend their time "exercising", something
I cannot bring myself to do.  At my age, I chose to do quite a lot we
now could get by awhile without, like chickens and goats.  Its easier
(and even cheaper) presently to buy eggs at the store or from neighbors
or pay for having the land bush hogged.  The 'work'  associated with
using wood is a plus, in my mind, as long as I am able to do it.  This
time will be extended, I think, by my choice to do it.   jerry
