[DSB] Getting older is not a problem for us, only to the extent that it’s a problem for our clients, or would-be clients.
Bob, do you feel the same way?
[RV] I agree with that.
Bob, is it a problem for you at all in terms of this lack of work that you’re getting because of getting older?
[RV] I don’t know how to measure that, I’m not so sure to what extent that is a problem. I just don’t know. I haven’t studied it. It’s very hard to analyse objectively.
How do you feel about getting older?
[RV] You know the funny thing, touch wood, is that I feel just the way I did 10 years ago. So, I don’t feel psychologically or physically older now, maybe tomorrow I will.
