Someone, somewhere suggested (only partially in jest) that the next big revival of the D&D game would come in another 10 or 20 years when the gamers who played in the 70s and 80s start to retire and move into nursing homes - and find themselves sitting around all day with nothing to do with their time but play D&D....

Damn you for putting that picture in my head. I thought my nursing home days would be spent chasing nurses.
But hopefully it will more like 40-50 (or more) years for this 40 year old!
Well, you go on dreaming. In reality if you do have enough energy to chase nurses, they will just sedate you for "acting up" again... If you are lucky enough to get any visitors, they will be told: -"Siegfried was being silly again, and then he got tired and went to sleep". So when you call your relatives on the quantum phone (they will be the normal way to communicate then) and ask why they never come to visit, they will tell you that they came last week, but you where sleeping.
The sedative will be so strong that chasing nurses is something you will only do in your dreams. No, much better to play D&D with your friends; all quiet like, not to disturb the nurses.
