The oldest reported member is theoldfool, with 85 years of experience...
The youngest reported member is maze3, with 17 (and a half) years of hunger...
Purely based on the posts the majority is over 40... Which is interesting for an area with reputation of 'for young only'...
(maybe that reputation was built by hr related, who knows nothing of the value of experience and the development of learning abilities with age)

Sure, and I am happy not to be around any more. I don't like what the world has turned into today, and after twenty or thirty more years of this "progress" I don't think I will be able to cope with it at all. I'd be happy to go.
I guess my father had the same feelings about how we ruined his world. Probably my grandfathers were thinking along similar lines. They did not turn into grumpy old men complaining about the young people nowadays. They let us make the world the way we found right. So I am saying the same to the young people of today: Do it your way. Just don't expect me to praise it, because it is certainly not my way. You do it your way, and take all the responsibility and the blame.

The age average in my company is really high.
It USED to be a young peoples area when computers where new. But the people that were young when computers were young are getting older as well.
In the future, I think that we will see all ages in the business... I doubt it's going to go back to young people only.

The value of experience cannot be denied. Looking at myself, I see a huge gap between me from 5 years ago and me now. Although I am of the thought that learning more depends on the learners attitude rather than age.
As a famous Chinese proverb goes :
He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; he who does not ask a question remains a fool forever.

Proverb or not, but only a fool can ask more questions than 100 wise men can answer. Look at Q&A. 
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

For sure age does not assure nothing - except to be old...

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.
