I don't know. Several years ago my father-in-law's older brother visited us. He was in his early 80's and assured us that 80 isn't old. This was right before he fell off our deck. (Fortunately, my son was there to catch him so the only bruising was to his ego.) He's nearly 90 now and did recently concede that he might soon be approaching old age.
