		<description>My 66 year old wife plays Spades with live persons through Hardwood Games Online. She was diagnosed with Alz early onset 5 years ago. Animal Planet is a tertiary choice!</description>

		<description>Probably. But there is no escape, I told you. She will get bored, her adultism will provide a less-effort escape goat, and you will sell it for 20% of the price eventually...

Nonetheless, for your continued edification, I&#039;ll satisfy your curiosity: Nowadays you&#039;ll be hard pressed to find simulations which properly stimulate all the different modalities the human brain needs to maintain its normal level of stupidity. Even a combination of simulations would be hard. You should continue your search and look for the different kinds of memories you have, then try to fit them to it. Again, there is no easy way out, depends on her current activities -- the scarce beneficial ones of course, not talking about all the drama.=)

I&#039;ll begin to charge you Mr. Russell, for all the good advice I give you, huh? Maybe you&#039;ll believe it more than medical advice from burglars who admittedly want to plunder your home. Either that or a total stranger you&#039;ve never seen or will see in your whole life, lol.</description>

		<description>Priming the readers for the new brain-products ads, heh?
As long as you don&#039;t slip the infomercial slope, Trudeau-Style, that&#039;s ok.=P</description>

		<description>&quot;...playing games, such as chess or checkers, are all simple activities that can contribute to a healthier brain...”

But what about video games?  All my wife does is sit there watching Animal Planet all day long.  Should I get her an X-box during the after-Christmas sales?

Just what would be the best video game for a 63-year-old woman?</description>
