My DW and I are in the 80s...we go to school once a week working our way through Word 2003. Looks as if D & G is getting closer so that we dedicated readers can read it.

I know they're making great strides in treatment, at least in holding it off, so I refuse to believe there's no hope. I think it's one of the things medical research is really working hard on because of the baby boomers hitting that age. But that letter he wrote was heartbreaking. I heard earlier today.

Gotta love that lady! Her cousin came over from Russia in the mid-eighties, he went back to college in NY at age 89 and graduated at age 91. Damn, that family has longevity.

She's just stuck on a college campus at the moment. And if you think all college students are young, you haven't been on a college campus lately. Plus there are the professors and their spouses and the people who work the support systems. Very small college towns are actually great places to retire to, too, and this is a very small college town. And I'm getting a chocolate orange from England. Strop, you are way too good to me.

But, youth on a college campus? Would anyone care? Beauty, wealth, love, fame, success, happiness- all that I can see. Is she marketing to older grad students and professors? Undergrads have all the youth they can handle. I haven’t been following D&G, so I’m looking at the poster out of context. But, youth on a college campus? Would anyone care?

Maybe it's because I've lived alone too long and don't have to share, or I'm old and my brain doesn't function as well, hmmmm? If I had to take two other women's opinions plus my own and make sense of them all, well, I'm thinking way too much work. I truthfully believe only accomplished authors should try this collaboration stuff because you'd have to be really sure of your own writing, what you'd bring to the table, what you'd be willing to let go of for the benefit of the story. On the other hand I love brainstorming ideas for stories, and bootcamping a story, but when it comes to the actual writing I'm a loner.
