Worked hard this weekend on my talk for the School on how to incorporate older adults into lecture content across ALL areas of Psychology. Found links to some great sites, including car manufacturers who have designed a "Third Age Suit" (third age being traditionally the period after retirement) which allows their engineers to get a better idea what it is like to drive a car at age 70. Pretty cool... Also worked a bit on the grant proposal looking at the impact of companion animals on residents of nursing homes. (The cats gave advice where needed....)

sounds like you had a cool talk - would love to see the power point - wish I could hear the whole talk
Nancy,
I have to read a little more about that suit. Can you send me the url? Sounds most cool.
By the way... MAN! That is one big wheelchair and tall guy.
