John: There are those of us who plain and simple enjoy getting up at 4 to 5 am. I'm 64, been doing it since I was 12 years old, I have the blood presure of a teenager. Doctor is always taking my blood presure, I can't walk through his door until a nurse has me on blood presure machine.

I may be up early but I sleep well while I'm there. I've never slept more than 6 hours per night in my entire life. I just plain like getting things done when no one is around to interupt. You can achive far more when no one disturbs you.

The way I've got it figured sleeping 6 hours per night indicates I've enjoyed 427,050 hours of wide awake living at 65 years. Now the guy sleeping 8 hours per night will have to live to 73-1/4 years for the same enjoyment. We all require different amount of sleep, and much of that is dictated by how well relaxed we are in everyday life.

The way I see it, we have this bunch of baby boomers slightly younger than Allan and I, and they are bound and determined they are going to live forever. They don't even want their children to inherit their money. They want to spend at least 20 year in a nursing home, completely unaware of who they are, and then they want to manage their money from the grave. Never in the history on mankind has the been such a greedy bunch.

Now, I may die of a heart attack tomorrow, next week, next year or 10 years down the road, but I'm damn well certain I want my heart to die before my brain. I've seen folks brain dead for years, not pleasant.
