I saw that a while back, cool that you posted it! I bragged to my kids since they know him, and had them watch 
Aubrey's drive is inspirational, I let him know my own ideas about getting people to care whenever I have a new one I've not heard anywhere 
But yes, it is about making people feel the concern from years in their future, somehow in their now. To me it seems like common sense to think ahead, but there are many factors that come in when aging is in the equation--not to mention the religious and societal ingrained ideas.

I posted about it here awhile back, but I likely should have created a new thread about it.
