I know Barry, I find it a little hard to believe that in a couple of years I will turn 60. How can that be?

Looking closely at the pole it appears that the 31-40 and 41-50 range are close. Overall (up to this point) the 31-50 range is at 60%.

Fred,

Check your math. It's almost 65%

Nice Dylan quote
I am 60 as of last month. My wife reminds me that 60 is the new 40 but there are times I feel 80

In addition to checking your math, check your spelling, too!

42, though I read at a 44 year-old level.

I'm also starting to appreciate why Jack Benny stayed 39.

You're right Fred, we have an equal split at the moment. I re-racked the results into equal bars of 10 years each. I'm sure most of the 31-40 and 41-50 groups will continue collecting for the next 10-20 years, sliding to the right as time passes. It will be interesting to see how the 31-40 age group looks in ten years. Will the current twenty-somethings grow in numbers to allow the 31-40 age group retain its share or will the average age grow as time passes? Hopefully the former coupled with growth to give the hobby we enjoy stability (price & value wise).

And for the record, 36 years here.
