Barbara You know, that is actually the right way, although it's the opposite of what most people do. But, when you're young, you have 50 years or more of life ahead of you. The older you get, the less of your life remains, and the more important it is to do the things you want to do while you still can -- so the risk/benefit ratio changes in favor of taking more risk, not less. -- Joe Long jlong@xxxxxxxx http://www.rnbw.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
