I'm pretty sure there are threads around like this, and you might also want to check out the GB Anatomy sticky at the top of this page.
But, in brief, a lot of people here tend to be older. Many are somewhere between 20 and 50+.

I would like to emphasize the fact that AGE is one thing, INTELLIGENCE is another, WISDOM is another, EDUCATION is another, KNOWLEDGE is another thing... (and goes on). You shouldn't confuse the meanings of these words. But maybe you already know that, since you have used a very important word: "seems".
I'm nearly 31 myself

But more often then not the listed things go hand in hand with age. (Wheee -generalizations ) It is difficult for an "youngster" to have the same level of wisdom, education, knowlegde et al., alone due to the lifespan as an "oldie"

And as can be calculated via my profile - 30 of age, however - feels like 50 though

This should be done as a poll so the results can be seen at a glance.

BTW, I'm 37.

lol! Actually, I wasn't trying to dodge the question, I forgot to answer that part of it when I was trying to remember the general age range here

I know I've mentioned it before, at least once, but for the record, I'm 39

Most true, but I have to say, I've met all kinds of "oldies" who are about as witless as a retarded geranium...
