I do indeed. I turn 78 before the month is out. However, years of
smoking snuck up on me; poor leg circulation limits my walking to less
than two miles without a stop. The funny part is that it didn't get me
until after I quit tobacco. (Another delayed effect is bladder polyps,
one of which turned cancerous before we found it. All fized now.)
