What do you say or do ???

First, I would have told him that I stopped listening when he called me a liar. Second, while a negative cannot be proven, a positive can. I would have told him to prove what he was saying or get lost. OR, if you were physically uncomfortable with the situation ( numbers don't necessarily mean anything) you could have simply walked away. If he would not allow that, respond as best you can, and make sure you have a good description if not a name and charge him with assault ( if your response wasn't adequate, or even if it was.) Unfortunately there are a lot more folks with sociopathic tendencies running around due to a certain kind of upbringing. No quarter can be given. Also, as he is not a community member (or even if he was) he is of no importance and should be treated that way.
Btw- there is no age limit to becoming prolific in many hand-to-hand styles. Trust me on this.

I almost always start an encounter like that by smiling and telling them in a very pleasant voice that I am sorry "it" happened to them, but I had nothing to do with it, and depending on the circumstances, offering some assistance to help. If they respond with more nastiness, I simply ask if they feel the need to get the authorities involved. Most of the time they back down either when they realize that I genuinely commiserate with them over something bad happening, or when I suggest getting someone official involved. If they continue to act aggressive, I go ahead and make a call and get the appropriate authorities involved, if only as a witness.
Regardless, I like GLASSMAN's suggestion about including an incident report with your invoice.

Jeepnik has the right attitude. Sometimes it's hard to keep your anger in check and laugh at them but, it works.
Especially with road rage idiots. And it helps to calm you down so you don't do something stupid.
Personally, I would find that guy that dressed you down and calmly ask for an apology. I think that would make him question his accusations.

Look, just tell him you had sex with his wife. That'll get him.

Allow me to quote a Deacon that I was fishing with
We were crappie fishing off a point when a very expensive bass boat rushed in and anchored between us and the point, perhaps 75 feet from us. As I cussed and started tying as much weight on my line to knock them out of their boat, he gently put his hand on my arm and said,
There's other places to fish...............
"Don't let some as***le ruin your day"
"If you get mad, you'll be mad all day"
"Walk a better path and put down your anger until it's time not to".
I hear his voice and advice pert near daily.
Truly a great example of a Christian man and fer sure a better way to live a happier and stress free life.

I'd just let it go. To be honest, just because your are 66 and they're 42 doesn't necessarily mean you know more about the profession then they. But I agree that it's reasonable to expect someone that's younger to be more respectful in their tone. It's the way we were brought up, right?
I'm 62 and I've recently had a 22 year old young man tell me straight out that he'd have no issue beating up a Senior. That's tough to hear but it's also a good reminder for me to stay physically fit and train with my EDC. Sorry to get off track.

If someone is intent on physically engaging with me they're going to get what I got.

Ok. I read that the 42 year accused the OP of something, called him a liar, then walked away. I've been around awhile and have learned that you pretty much wasted the day if you let someone else control your feelings.
Whoops. missed that he walked away after. In that case just let it go. Me, I would have told him to shut up and listen. Probably would not have given him the opportunity to walk until he had.
I'll waste a day if I can torment folks acting like an anus.
