Today: We start things off by discussing what family means to you. Are you taking the day off to make plans with your partner, kids and/or extended family? If so, we'd love to hear about it. Meanwhile, our own David Cravit who is also a demographic trends specialist has come out with a new book on the topic of longevity and we ask the question: has the first human who will live to be 150 been born yet? Finally, we discuss the legacy of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter who made the decision this week to transition into hospice care. He is 98.
