JP really is generous and magnanimous. I can vouch for that in a personal basis. He helped me and my family when he has never met us and wouldn't know me from Adam on the street.
Gardener, it is interesting that you bring up the age factor, since I was thinking about exactly that when I was driving home from the gym today. I think the weight room is generally the domain of the younger person - at least in the 2 gyms where I am a member - one of which even has an older clientele than most gyms. Many times, at age 37, I may be one of the two oldest guys in the weight room. Therefore, I think more accollades should be given to older men and women who habitually resistance train. I was actually thinking about you and Quercus and popeye and CIB while driving home (no kidding!) and thinking ' they should be given some sort of award for doing what they do.' You guys are truly my inspiration and my fitness heroes - I hope that I am able to continue as you gentlemen are when I am your chronological ages.
