    I totally agree. Ever since my beard has turned grey, I kinda love it: a few times a youngster offered me a seat on the bus/tram, people take their time to listen to you, young women adore men my age (they say we're wise, hahaha), I get more things done, because age brings a network and so on. Really, it's fun when a youngster who doesn't know Led Zeppelin discovers the gorgeous music while visiting the workshop. My little cousins think I am ancient and I totally agree. To me age is nothing more than the most personal experience of time. Without ageing there's no time and when there's no time, there's no description of change. By inventing such medicine, I think it's a symptom of fear, even a conservative way of thinking, which is a sign of these times.
