Appologies if this has been done before - I conducted a search but found nothing. Just interested to see what sort of age profile we have on this board. What age are you?Post in the thread as well, so we can all match an age to a name.I'm 21, so that makes me young and ignorant (as opposed to old and ignorant ).Results (total votes = 13):Under 18&nbsp0 / 0.0%&nbsp18 - 25&nbsp5 / 38.5%&nbsp 25 - 35&nbsp2 / 15.4%&nbsp 35 - 50&nbsp5 / 38.5%&nbsp Over 50&nbsp1 / 7.7%&nbsp  ___________________Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?-Douglas Adams, Last Chance To See

Looks like I'm older than both of the above two posters put together.You will discover as you pass the half-century mark that everything you were so damn sure of when you were younger is now in doubt, and up for reinterpretation, so don't fall in love with your own theories and opinions.

I'm 37...the group of energetic people I was working on a festival with all turned out to be 21 or 24. They all turned to me and said: "I thought you were younger!" They assumed I was their age...how does this make me feel? Good, then I realize that when I was 21 I was failing classes at university and learning to drink beer and pick up men....not trying to save the world.hmmmLori "All beings are the owners of their deeds, the heirs to their deeds."

I'm fast approaching 50, and in spite of the start of aches and pains, it looks like a great age to be!

CS:So far you are out-numbered!! Mr. P. The one thing of which I am positive is that there is much of which to be negative - Mr. P.The pain in hell has two sides.

I was going to try to help CS not be outnumbered, but I'm in the wrong category. I am 28. Loricat, in order to be motivated to save the world I think you have to experience the things that make it worth saving. Like drinking beer and picking up men!

thanks, I feel better! Lori "All beings are the owners of their deeds, the heirs to their deeds."

I'm also 21. Does that help? Let us agree, there is no one single reality. Not upon this stage, not in this world, all is in the mind... imagination is the only truth.
