Default recommended timing belt change

Hi all,
After 7 years with my Integra, my family finally outgrew it. Now the proud owner of an exceptionally clean 94 legend L. Car has 101k miles and no service records. The owners manual seemed to indicate that the timing belt replacement was more of just suggested, rather than required like on the Integra. Can anybody verify? Is the 3.2 engine an "interference" engine that drops the valves if the belt goes?

Any other service tips would be greatly appreciated!

The interval is 90k. You probably wont bend any valves if the belt breaks.
On an unrelated note, why 'DrOlds'? Do you own a Hurst?
