Is it better to burn out, or fade away?

OK. Thanks for the clarification!

Many experiment while young, then opt for less risky lifestyles. Others appear to be born with a stronger than normal craving for intensity/stimulation. When it's a function of brain chemistry, it's not so easy to outgrow, especially when it leads to addiction. 

I saw Neil being interviewed by Dan Rather who asked this question to him. I'd have to go back and search. AXS tv. Dan does some good interviews of musical artists.

Yes; he does. The one with G. Allman is the first one I came across, filmed at Allman's home.

I used to be that active. Consistency is key. Now, I jog in place while listening to music, but I need to get back to my previous routine.
