Our concepts of "old" and "old age" are out of date. It is no longer useful to categorise everyone over the age of 60 as just "old"; there are the "old" (60-80 years), the "very old" (80-100) and the "extremely old" (over 100). These are radically different phases of life, as different as youth (0-20 years), young adulthood (20-40) and middle age (40-60).
