DEAR ABBY: "Elderly" is a politically correct euphemism for "old." What's wrong with being old? I am an aging boomer and I want to be as old as possible.
In this baby- and youth-obsessed culture of ours, it's time to shout, "Old is great!" -- MICHAEL PEARCE, PORTLAND, ORE.
DEAR MICHAEL AND READERS: I'll second the motion.
I regret that I am unable to print all of the delightful definitions I've received for "elderly"; however, from time to time, I will share more of them.
