Talk to Westmount Rotary Club, 2017-6-14: Why we get old and die, and what to do about it
This was a very condensed version of my talk, “Why we get old and die, and what to do about it”.
As ex-mayor Peter Trent is reported to have said when informed of the title, “Sounds depressing, like some of Leonard Cohen — music to slash your wrists to. But perhaps in another vein…”
The handout for the talk ran to 14 pages, and was therefore not handed out in hardcopy. You can download a pdf here.
The presentation itself (slides and notes) can be downloaded here.
