This might seem like a stupid question.. (but you might be getting used to those out of me by now too..)

BUT.. I have noticed a FEW of the members here must be KIDS!  Now I am not OLD by my standards, only 35, but Scotty (totally funny guy btw)  he mentioned he didn't have a checking account cause he was only a KID.    (unless he was joking?!)

Now.. I just read a post where BoRg said he was a student..  WHAT???  a STUDENT??  so I went on a search.. found the "About Us" link.. and there it is.. a picture of a KID.. (or a VERY young looking MAN?!)

What's up with this you guys?  Am I one of the OLDEST / Newbies here??    what a complex this gives me when KIDS have to help their seniors..

because seniors haven't been using computers long enough. Lets see i've been using computers since i was 4 in pre school and that was, let's see, about 10 years ago... and i don't have a checking account either so chill. And since when is a young student not allowed to run a website, Bruce doesn't look that young (no offense). I don't think 35 is really that old, but don't ask me... i'm only 14

OH.. it just never ceases to amaze me that kids are learning earlier and earlier.  I didn't even use a computer till I was out of highschool, and that was, umm.. in 1985 (4 years before your birth

I just assumed (incorrectly) that everyone here was simular in age to me.  I guess it comes from a life of always being the youngest in everything.. but then you grow up, and no longer are you the "baby" everywhere you go.

Ok.. now I just really got depressed cause I just equated your age, to my oldest daughters age.. she just turned 10!!  Your only 4 years older then her!! 

And anyone of any age can do anything they want.. but when I see "companies" like this, I don't automatically assume a kid runs it all.  But guess it's no different then going to the doctor these days and having them be 10 years my junior.

And glad you don't think 35 is old.. i'll tell you, I never FELT old till about umm.. THIS MORNING!

MORE POWER to the kids!! (yes, you ARE a kid to me.. )  cause us 'oldies' have to have someone to teach us..

I am 17 and have been making sites and developing in various languages for over 5 years - I have done this whilst running a sound & light rental company that I started when I was 12
