davidac · Sep 18th, 2003, 11:41 AM

Hmmm, I am not even 30 but I am lumped in with some that are almost 50. Just doesn't seem right.

47 next week and happy to be lumped in with you gen xers and younger.
Intersting the revival of this poll after over 2 years. So do all the 48 and 49 year olds that voted last time get a chance to change their vote? (and anyone esle who has changed categories in the last two years)

My doctor told me that 50 is the new 30!

Where's you here this?

BTW--I like these new age brackets.

I just saw a book on aging and the developing technologies regarding health. According to this book, over the next 30 or 40 years or so science will get us to the point where aging can be substantially slowed and even reversed. So I am hoping that by the time I get there, 60 will be the new 30 then 70 will be the new 20. Gotta like that math. Won't age demographic studies be confusing then.

I was 39 when we ordered the car. The car came of the production line on my 40th birthday! So that makes me 40.
