I don't like the "living legends" section. The age of the author is not pertinent. There are several practical problems. The ages of the authors need to be changed every year. The section will become like a death-watch. Certainly the 90+ year-olds will be passing away within a few years. I think that the most important aspect of the authors is that they are widely acknowledged experts in a field. I have no problem asking a young investigator to write an article on a subject that he/she is the expert on.--Pkatz 08:55, 16 January 2008 (EST)
