old and young???

[marshalls2007]

out of curiousity i wanted to know the adverage age of a reef keeper,

so how young are you guy's/girl's really?

[josh]

16 :d

[muzzy]

not really a very good poll, as most internet users are between the age of 16 and 40.
there are probably loads of older reefkeepers out there that dont use forums like this

[marshalls2007]

maybe not very good but interesting to know the adverage age of keepers on this site.

wes.

You know what's really funny is that in statistics the shape of the distribution of ages is a poisson distribution and I learned in school that poisson is the french for fish!

Out of interest, how old are our oldest and youngest active members? Does anybody know this? Not who they are, I wouldn't dare be so rude as to ask that (although I am curious!) just how old/young.
