Hi greg.
I voted for greater than 91 because we are all the same age.
That being 15.2 billion years old.
The things that make up our being are all the same age so i am being 15.2 billion years old.
How about you? How's fifteen point two billion years old doing over on your side of the planet?
This is groovey, by no uncertain terms!

I like idea that we can vote for instead of indicating our age. Also, you didn't specify the numbering system. I always use hex.

teehee, my mom made up a new way to tell ppl how old we are. once we hit 30, we can start saying "twenty ten" (since twenty ten is the next logical number after twenty nine) and so on and so forth. using that number system, I'm twenty twelve, by the way.

15, and not looking to get any older any sooner.
BTW, it was a good idea, Greg, to start another thread on the age of the members, since my thread was...side-tracked.

Where are all of the boomers?
There you go Greg. How do we pull in more of the old guys?
This begs the question: Do physicists die young?
