Hi-Noon: Age Limit For Transplants?

SpudBob: "I read that Former VP Dick Cheney, aged 71, got a heart transplant over the weekend. Politics and personalities aside, do you think there should be an upper age limit for heart transplants? If you do, where would YOU set the limit?" Story here.

Question: I thought the same thing. So I'll push SpudBob out front with his question: Should there be an upper limit re: age for transplant patients?
