Old age is linked to Alzheimers; that's the number one risk factor,
outside of genetic predispositions.  More people are living longer, so more
people are getting Alzheimers.  If you live long enough, all sorts of bad
things happen, so I wouldn't worry about aluminum from CD's (or soda cans,
for that matter).  Another example, few people talk about oxygen being a
carcinogen, but it is.  Free radicals can cause cancer when they react with
DNA, that's why there are some 20,000 cancer cells in everyone's body at a
given time.  After a while, the immune system doesn't work as well at
stopping them, and some people get cancer from that.
