Now that we are in our 60's and 70's we see another cultural revolution led by folks like us who refuse to act their age. We may be Old Dogs, but we can still learn New Tricks.

Our new League of Literate Ladies kicks off with commentary by Bredgette Mongeon. And we announce the OED word of the year.
