And one of the most interesting things, which if you're old, was one of the best things I've read in terms of generally uplifting information. The reason when you get older, that you find it often slower to retrieve information, is not because of deteriorating mental faculties. It's because you know more, or you've accumulated more information and therefore more of what you know needs to be stored in kind of the slower access parts of the brain. So much wisdom that you've got to dig through.
