61 today
Thanks all and everyone—I didn't expect to reach this age.
BTW same day as Cho Chikun (only he was born one year earlier, in 1956)
(thanks for that info, Dellard!)

I'm 27. I feel 512, and the worst part about it is I didn't even get to learn Go from Dosaku. |

I am 53. I feel like 48; I guess. Grey hair's come in half way. I look older than I feel. |

My 64th birthday was yesterday. I'm still playing volleyball with people whose average age is in their thirties. Much to my surprise, my knees are still holding up under such stresses. The PCL tear from five years ago does not cause any problems. I am heartened by news that I read of an experiment done at Stanford. It appears that removing some cerebrospinal fluid from young mice and injecting it into the brains of older mice improves their memory. It does this by improving the growth of new myelin. Moderate demyelination is a problem for all of us as we get older. It accounts for the gradual forgetfulness and decline in cognitive skills. Acute demyelination is the hallmark of diseases like MS and ALS, and - to some degree - Alzheimer's. Unlike many studies, this one has a clear path from the lab to the doctor's office. The researchers know exactly which protein makes the improvement. And it has been isolated in humans. It should be possible to do some DNA or RNA editing, and make bacteria produce it, much like they currently produce insulin. Look at https://www.statnews.com/2022/05/11/tra ... ng-elixir/ |

Happy birthday, Joaz. It's good to hear that you're staying active. If you find the time, come join us in Estes Park at the US Go Congress. It'd be cool to sync up. I don't know if you remember, but we met in person at the Cotsen Go Tournament - probably more than 10 years ago, now. |
