Hi Jeff, I hope you had a great weekend.

"Using Jack La Lanne as an example is fine & I do not disagree, but
it is an isolated single case example and if we accept its valididty
then we could also then use George Burns as an acceotable one,
and he outlived Jack Le Lanne, smoked, ate a poor diet & never
exercised."

So why should I think that Jack Lalanne won't outlive George Burns?
And I'll bet that Jack's current level of function is much better
(almost 94) than George Burn's at 94. Jack's generation did not
understand the benefits of exercise as he did. That's one of the
main reasons Jack is an "isolated single case."

Thanks again Jeff and keep up that exercise!

Tim
