Roll Call on age
This morning I was watching some news show and they had an interesting statistic on stating that 93% of internet users are between the ages of 18 and 29. That seems very young to me, since I know a lot of people over the age of 29 who use the internet a lot. It got me to wondering what the age range is here on the 'Pit. Not looking for specific ages, but just whether you fall in to that range, are younger or older.
We know Jim just celebrated a birthday that took him out of the range by a few. . .
I'll start. I'm well over the age of 29; in fact I have a daughter who is over age 29 (and she uses the internet!) and a son and daughter who fall in the 18-29 range.
Anybody??

This has cropped up before
We did have a poll on this topic back in September; however, I can’t work out how to locate the results in SnakePit v2.0. While we await an answer from the tech-gods, here’s the diary where a number of people talked about their ages.

I guess technically
I’m 91, what I don’t count all those years trapped in the mixolydian plane.
The boys in Sedona Red slugged it out with a pretty pesky poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with some of the lovely ladies who witnessed the disturbance.
I was
Trapped on a Southwest Airlines plane once. It certainly felt like 91 years.

Also 23.
We should start a club of 23 yr old Snakepitters.

thats right I’m a couple months younger than our starting RF. Neither one of us can have a celebratory beer when we win WS game 6.

93%? That seems to be a highly suspect statistic, and I question the methods of whoever collected the data.
I am 27, turning 28 next month.

And I suppose you’ll expect a present now!
It's like living with a six-year old.

Hmm....
in dog years, that’d be 661.
I assume that cat years are different.

Dude.....
3000? Don’t sell RJ short. That’s like John Smoltz numbers, not Randy numbers.

Looks like none of the other old guys want to ‘fess up ;-)
Alright, I admit it.
I’m not actually 23. I’m 70.

So we're all old dudes around here.

Well there goes our average.

Don't ruin it, Skins
Hey, Azreous? Can you go get your mom’s purse or your dad’s wallet? Get one of those shiny plastic cards out and type out all the numbers on it for us, okay?
