[AccessD] Just ANother Old Boys Club

Well... since Charlotte left we really are an old BOY's club.

Bottom line, I joined the list in 1997.  That is pushing 13 years ago now.  Yea, Access has changed 
radically (with 2007) and I have grown old and weary.  I was a spritely 42 years old 13 years ago, 
living in Mexico, no kids, having fun.  Now I am 55, two young kids, living in North Carolina and 
programming in a completely different environment.

The only real reason to even stay on the list is to bitch and moan about my arthritis.  Where else 
am I going to find a bunch of old people who can relate?
