I don't know anyone's age unless he mentions it, posts a selfie or gives some relevant info. I don't even think about such things. If someone posts he saw Syd Barrett in concert during college, I can get a good idea.

For the record, I'm a Midwestern native raised to be polite and courteous, so am for good manners no matter what the ages involved. Remove the age aspect and insert 'new people,' and I agree with the initial post.
