Any word on the RASH of suicides here in The Villages ?

I also think that Kitty's point was very valid...your post made me do some research beyond GOOGLE......and that is why I gave it some validation, BUT if you read all the report and reports, they also have caveats in them...one being the age thing. Had your post mentioned that it would have been received much different. Also to say "everybody knows" is a bit condescending......the report is pretty new and I doubt very much if "everybody knows" since it is less than a month old (I think)
