"Defying
his 85 years as well as gravity, Carol Johnston practices pole
vaulting in Walnut, California. Still competitive, he holds the world
record—7'6" [2.3 meters]—for his age. He and 34 million others over 65
in the United States are leading a revolution, remaining vigorous and
living longer than any previous generation. While science explores how
to add even more healthy years to the human life span, a graying
society faces inevitable changes in attitude and lifestyle."
