In todays world. Little suprises me. Plus logically it is going to get worse. As I visualise the future the younger members on site will have to use their common sense. Plus develop abilities beyond what my generation has had to do. The price of not doing this may be severe. It always had some penalty. It is almost a daily thing to see excess costs on many things now.

It really was not like this for the majority of our lives. I am typing this even though our total income at our age is more than adaquate. The wife is sixty five and I am sixty nine. Personally I do not like the way the winds are blowing at all over a reasonable time frame.
