Sounds like it taking a few years for children to realize that the new owners of the house hand out fun size bars at Halloween instead of the full sized ones the previous occupants did.
I agree with the others' thoughts that a site/domain's 'reputation' should absolutely be reset when it changes hands.
Hopefully the new owner's reputation falls faster than would in my Halloween example. Piggybacking on someone else's success like that isn't 'cool'.

My dad is back home after 2 weeks in the hospital, where he was being treated for a chest infection. While he was recovering, he had an ischemic event (transient blockage of blood into the heart, caused by coronary disease brought about by old age), which thankfully didn't cause anything more than a slight chest pain and tiredness. His ECG is back to normal (the blockage repaired itself) and he returned home today, just in time to celebrate his 98th birthday tomorrow.
Until he was 97, he was taking 4 international flights (20 hours each) from Bombay to Toronto a year on his own. His BP is 120/80 and he has no cholesterol or blood sugar problems. He's been exercising 6 days a week, never binges, and has a positive outlook on life and a wicked sense of humor.
We should all be so lucky. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

That is good news and wow, that is impressive that he takes such good care of himself. Your Dad sounds like he's as fit as a 30 year old. Exercise is the fountain of youth. I see a stark contrast between people who exercise regularly and those who do not.

I do not know about your exercising, but for the rest this somewhat confirms genetic inheritance

Personally, I find it hard to have both at the same time.

Glad to hear he is doing well, hope I can do half that when I'm 98.

Before you take a calculated risk, should you check that you are good with maths?

That depends totally upon a number of factors. Sum good ones, others making no difference. Depends, mainly upon the final product you're looking for.

I don't mean to sound derivative, but that way of thinking is integral to becoming more knowledgeable.
