They don't trust technology because robots eat their pills.
It could be that, but I suspect it's more likely that people in the upper age groups increasingly said "who cares" or "none of your business" when they filled out the registration form and just entered nonsense dates. (I know that's what I normally do in. ;))Quote:

65 But much younger at heart.

I'm 36 and proud of it. I just wish i had discovered straight razors years ago.
I remember seeing WordStar but never used it. I cut my teeth on a top of the line PC-AT 386 with 4MB of RAM, a Tseng Labs 512kb video card and a 40MB HDD :eek: At the time everybody envied me on that machine. The second computer was a C=>64, which got sold to buy a modem for the first one and then I got hooked at the tender age of 13 :nj I still miss those black/amber Hercules monitors :cry:
Bah! A mere child!! The first computer I used didn't have a keyboard or a disk. Just toggle switches and neon lights... one for each bit. Later came punched paper tape for "mass storage" and teletypes for consoles/printers. Wordstar didn't show up til maybe 20-years later, give or take. :DQuote:

I'm 66
Emotionally, I'm about 10 (max)
My children, and Grand-Children, are much more mature than I am.
* I wonder if that's just one of the reasons why they all love me so much:)

I'm 38, but my razor is 95.
I can't back that up. I have a new Wapi (so 30yrs?) and a couple of undated Ebay specials destined for restoration of unknown age...
I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one on here that's over 50 . I'm 53 .
I turn 37 this year. Does that mean it's time to put me out to pasture? Should I be suspicious if a member says, 'there's a free brand new Maestro Livi waiting for you, just follow me over that hill out back and it's yours for the taking. . ." and is carrying a shotgun? :w
the shotgun should not worry you... he might be willing to give the a fighting chance... now if he has a humane killer well then you might need to worry... and if you see a pot of boiling water with a rope and pulley overhead... you should start running... so i wonder how does girraffe taste? like chicken or more like an eland?Quote:

I'm 63 and started with a 366 and Windows 3.0. I bought a new 4 Gig hard drive for $1300. I said I will never need more space than that. I now have over one Terabytes of space. We have come a long way.

I turned 34 this month. Wordstar was the only word processor I used at home through high school because that was what was on one of the disks we got with the old Apple IIe that some co-worker of my father sold us when I was in junior high. Can't say that I miss it though.Quote:

I'm less than half the age of my razors :D.
I'm not sure how I got to be 51, that used to be old.

im 24. glad to see that many guys of my generation are into straight razor shaving, keeping the hobby and industry going, as well as the art and technique.
My wife says I'm 43, I lost count years ago and never really cared.
My friend in school was big on computers, I remember the day he was so excited to get the casset tape drive... Yup, we are quite different people.... I was excited to get my first S&W 6" 29...
