    Youth is a precious gift one shouldn't squander. Well, at least I have memories! :p

    Mmm, I remember the 8-bit nintendo, though it was when I was bored with my Snes :shake: Back then I had both the Genesis (North American Mega Drive) and the Snes. Oh the possibilities!

    Nah, 21 here. Well nearly 22 so I ticked that one. I used to have an 8 bit nes when I was a kid. The original mario games where if you died you had to start all over again... those were the days!

    ^Simple the world as we know it will come crashing down on our heads.

    Now a good question to ask is who (aside from tal) has been posting here the longest?

    I find it entertaining that I've been here about 10 months LONGER than Chev and he's got me beat by 12323 posts.

    Hey, the 22-27 age group is only 2 votes behind the 17-21.

    Hmm, perhaps I should have phrased that as who aside from (tal and the dwindling old guard) has been here the longest?

    Unanswerable. Where do you draw the line for "old guard", and what makes that a good place?

    Goodie! I was hoping HB would trot out his poll. I got my vote in but will leave up to ya'all to guess in which age group I voted.

    By the way, Harbouboy, I did like the title 'Vernerable Sage' but that 'was there something before me' is good too.

    Ah the Good Old Days when I played with those home made cart and horse toys. Other girls played with corn cob dolls but I could never be bothered with that sissy stuff. :D :evil:

    Well, newbie I may be, but oldie I also am. Let's just say past the half-century mark.

    And I'm still playing with computer games.

    My first computer was a Commodore. Some years after I graduated from college, I took a programming course at a local community college in which we used punched cards to run our programs.

    Family had a TV when I was a child, though. Family story is, when radio was repaired in car and turned on for first time, I climbed around looking for picture. (No seat belts in that car.)

    But as the saying goes: youth is wasted on the young.

    So do prattling, murmering, spamming and preaching. ;)
    It's not only the amount of posts that amazes me, it's also the length of his posts.

    But once I start, I can't shut up--oh wait, we were talking about Chev.

    I like his points...

    No, we can't cross the critical 1% activity threshold! It would be chaos.
