Hello Again, I noticed something...most of us are SHORTIES! 6 of us that have posted so far are below average height (5' 7"). I hope that this comment does not offend anyone, I was never sensitive about my height (I'm the shortest of us all so far). I kinna always liked being short, except when it comes to reaching things, then I get out my handy "Gopher" reachy thingy! Not all but most of the taller people ae losing faster, some of the shorties too. Maybe there is a connection? Hmmmmmm... Tracy
