Deputy Design Director: Wes Bausmith

As the boomer generation ages, one of the leading causes of death & despair is dementia, taking a massive toll on the sufferer, families and the health-care system. The article suggests that it's time to limit the use of (essentially useless and ineffective) drugs and return to a point where we treat people with respect, time and compassion. I heartily agree.
