When we retired from the military about 12 years ago in our early forties we settled into our new community and checked out the local service clubs, legion etc. We were stunned to see the amount of smokers in the clubs, all mid 50's and up. Nice folks and all but living in a different time than us. You essentially wanted to burn your clothes after leaving the building. Their live bands were all 60's eras and although they were into raising money for worthwhile causes there was never any activity that didn't involve a beer glass and cigarette, or so it seemed. To each his own. Just wasn't our thing. Who the heck still smokes?

Not willing or did they decide it wasn't worth the effort to try and join when the "powers that be" met every question or suggestion with a "we tried that 20 yrs ago" answer, even when the technology/ solution wasn't available 20 yrs ago?

This is the part I don't understand, they have to KNOW that they will need younger people to replenish ranks, so why go out of their way to antagonize those who want to come aboard?
I don't know. In my town the Moose lodge was sold and is now a church. The Masonic lodge was sold and now a night club. In Ely the American legion building was sold.
If you don't replenish the ranks you run out of people. Maybe that's the way its meant to be.
Where my seasonal is at we have people from there 30's to there 80's and we enjoy each others companionship.
