Yup.
Which begs the question, how many inches shorter are you now than when you came in?
(19,141 hours, 13 minutes and 44 seconds (or 797 days) til I can retire.)
If you count when I first entered as an 18 year old, it's 2 inches. I think 2/3 of that is in my back. The rest is the cartilege in my knees. Lots of pounding for a lot of years. I was also a runner when young...started earnest training in 6th grade. Haven't run one step since I retired. (And my weight shows it, but I can now walk without pain. BTW, why does ibuprofen work better than tylenol on me, but vice versa with others?)
