Apparently, the guy isn't up on his smoking science -- or maybe he is. In any event, smoking has already put him at a disadvantage against the average 60-year-olds. Scientists report -- it's true -- that older guys have twice the sperm count as young "bucks." They say the increase in smoking by pregnant women is the cause. I personally think it's the cell phones and calculators and pagers with their electromagnetic fields that they wear on their belts. Or the extreme increase in chlamydia among teenagers. Or both.

And what's with that term now in use: "sexually-transmitted" diseases? Although more descriptive, consistent with the dumbing down of America, we all knew what "venereal" diseases were; and that phrase and its acronym, "V.D.," scared the bejesus out of us. Not so with the relatively mild "STD," which sounds like a floral delivery service.
