NY Times article entitled "Brain Power - At Card Table, Clues to a Lucid Old Age." The article describes an ongoing research project exploring healthy aging, and describes a group of Bridge players who keep sharp much longer than their non-Bridge-playing companions. What do you do to keep your mind sharp? Which direction do you think the correlation goes it -- is it that sharper people who play Bridge are less likely to develop dementia, or that people who play Bridge stay sharp and prevent dementia? How might the results of this research impact your plans for older adulthood?
