Thank you, I was hoping somebody would have already made this point. Funny thing is, both statements are true; you really didn't have 85-year-olds with chronic diseases. There were 85-year-olds, they just didn't have chronic diseases. The idea that we have them now is due to improved treatment of other diseases ignores tons of epidemiological evidence that says otherwise.
