The lawyer types added the disclaimer… Medical Disclaimer: All information on this site is of a general nature and is furnished for your knowledge and understanding only.

Soon, PG was asked for an email, and told to create a password. Click here to indicate acceptance of terms. Somewhere in the mix was this … Free RealAge membership…Membership is free and provides practical, personalized information to help make your RealAge younger.

At this point, PG started to get nervous. He hit the x in the top left corner of the window.
