It's been awhile and I'm curious... how old are you?

It's been awhile (a few years I think) since we've had an age survey, and I'm curious what the avg age is of the current TFPer. Please take a moment and let us know how old you are!

Small sample, thus far. Hey, Cyn, how about steering people here with you little teaser message at the top of the page? I know there's more than one other here in my age bracket. Nudge 'em this way.

Of course depending on the day, I think that some of us would range from mentally being about 5 years old, to being mentally around 100 years old.

Ok, so at this point, there's 461 views and 106 votes. Unless there are a lot of people who are won't admit their age, or someone is hitting the Refresh button one too many times.

And it looks like the average age seems to be 20-ish through 40-ish, not bad.
