Not saying its not a good idea, just that its torture ;-) I can't imagine you wired to the idiot box -- I still remember your advise on fitness -- walking prior to the olympics. All this chatter, when I should be on the treadmill (or back out in the darkroom). > > >With a personal trainer and my doctor in on the planning/results to see what >can be achieved with an ancient body and how far it can be pulled back to >better shape, This starts the first 3 months, followed with a 2nd 3 ending >mid October. > >Heck by the time we are ready to rock and roll at the Leica Seminar I could >be a 73 year old Adonis! ;-) He had two eyes ;-) I'm delighted you are going about this the right way, and we all await the results.
