But didn't it state for people in there 60's that it was more risker and also people in mid 40's with alot of medical problems??

Thanks for the links, Nancy. I read the first one, but the second link you posted was invalid, maybe a type-o? Could you re-post it for those of us who didn't get a chance to read it? Cindy
