   Here was another fairly recent video:

   John Sanford on (Genetic Entropy) – Down, Not Up – 2-4-2012 (at Loma Linda University) – video

   Interesting Notes from Dr. John Sanford’s preceding video:

   *3 new mutations every time a cell divides in your body
   * Average cell of 15 year old has up to 6000 mutations
   *Average cell of 60 year old has 40,000 mutations
   Reproductive cells are ‘designed’ so that, early on in development, they are ‘set aside’ and thus they do not accumulate mutations as the rest of the cells of our bodies do. Regardless of this protective barrier against the accumulation of slightly detrimental mutations still we find that,,,
   *60-175 mutations are passed on to each new generation.

   This following video brings the point personally home about the effects of genetic entropy, and entropy generally, as we age:
