I had a discussion with an old friend over the weekend and the subject of our mutual age came up. At 66 we acknowledged that we are old, as in seniors. But we weren't as sure when we would reach 'elderly' status. We concluded that somewhere in our mid to late 70s, we would probably qualify for that designation. You know, another 10 years or so from now. At least 10 years. Probably more.

Well, I looked it up when I got home and the definition of 'elderly' appears to be 65+. Holy $hit! That was a shock.

So, how many of you guys are over 65 and therefore 'elderly'? Did you know you are officially 'elderly'? And is that the right age for that designation?
