		<description><![CDATA[Came upon an article today that says a new study shows old age is the best time:

&#8220;The good news is that with age comes happiness,&#8221; said study author Yang Yang, a University of Chicago sociologist. &#8220;Life gets better in one&#8217;s perception as one ages.&#8221;
