    The Youth Gone Mild

    While we might sometimes sound like 2 cranky middle-aged dudes (because we are), it actually originates from a sincere desire to help. And while we also realize who our audiences is, there is always an underlying hope that we might reach the younger crowds every now and again. This is because of what living 50 years has taught both of us and the responsibility we feel to help leave this place better than we found it. Coming to grips with our age isn't that hard to do, but watching a world make the same mistakes we did can be. If nothing else, we hope to at least give everyone something to think about. This is the youth gone MILD!
