I'm older than dirt. I can see that I am definitely the oldest on this forum and for that reason alone, I can't put down my age. It does make me feel pretty good that I'm still young on the inside. Carry on young whipper snappers, Cecil............

I forgot about this thread, and I guess I never responded here, but since I've become rather attached to this place, it's only fair that I do so.

61, started straight out of grad school as a NASA scientist specializing in aerospace safety, worked the Space Shuttle program (including both Challenger and Columbia accident investigations), held a couple of senior US gov positions before being offered a position as SVP of operations of a major U.S. airline for 10 years. I left that rat race to become a consultant and partner of a DC law firm, still specializing in aviation safety and regulatory matters, but was "drafted" back into a senior gov post recently.

I've always been car and airplane crazy since a kid, having owned more 50 mechanized, transportation machines (cars, trucks, airplanes, and boats) over the years, but am now just concentrating on the car crazy part.

If you're here - and driving an F-Type - that tells me you're young at heart and, usually, that's all that matters.

*(Maybe I've missed something but I've actually wondered what makes one Forum member Senior, Junior, etc.)


It's just the number of posts.

It's based on how often one has opened their fat mouth. (1-30,31-100,101-1000 posts).

LMAO, well done, LM! It took me 7 months to reach 1000, but I've known for a long time that I talk too much. Unfortunately, it's an incurable disease.

Well, I'm a young 50, but I should really be considered 46, because you're only as old as the woman you feel!

I really wish I had read Ricky Jay's posts in this thread. They must have been really good as he has deleted all of them
