    Yes, the theoretical shaving age of one's soul is difficult to measure unfortunately.

    So, they have to use data computers readily have available like post count and time since join date.

    What they forgot to mention is the initiation ritual when you become a senior member.

    Pretty soon you will be sent an Email telling you to report to a location on a date and time. There you will meet a group of fellow straight shavers. They will be wearing monkey masks and have big sticks with straights attached to them. You will run the gauntlet. If you survive you will be a real senior member. If you don't you will be in our in memorium section where folks can say nice things about you.

    I suspected something like that. Too many folks here use avatars so noone can see the scars

    Myself and the other Richard must be senior senior members, or perhaps vintage senior members.

    Actually, Richard, there is you, Richard, me Richard and Minnesota Richard pushing the Senior Senior Catagory. But I am the Methusalah Senior by age, not abilities.

    In Richard's case because of his advanced age we took pity on him and had a bunch of 5 year olds with nerf sticks and no razors for his initiation.

    Would that mean that because of his extreme antiquity and lack of damage, he would be considered NOS?
