 Quite impressive. By "several decades", do you mean you didn't play at all during that time? Not even a little toot for old times sake?
 
 Your comments on overall physical fitness are unbelieveably right on the ball. When I attended Le Conservatoire de Montreal, there was this class we had to take combining Yoga, Pilates and some kind of dancing. As soon as these classes ended - pow - tendonitis set in.
 
 I overcame it and other pains by taking good care of my overall body. A full routine of streatching, the kind professional atheletes do, is imperative regardless of age. It's also important for wakefullness and injury prevention.
 
 I have also found that drinking 2 liters of water a day haver reduced to a quarter - exactly - the amount of pain relievers I need to take.
