I feel old and grizzled......I was 40 when I first visited Tankbusters, before it was AquariaCentral. Let's just say that there is no more room before 50 hits<G>
Nice thing is that now those perhaps older will surface and make me feel better about it :D

Wish I could darlin', but you still have me by a few years. :)
I would like to give my thanks and appreciation to all those who are 'youngins', and don't behave as such. It's nice to see thoughtful, well written posts--from all age groups, but in particular from those immersed in the short talk, text-messaging age group. It's G8! ;)

I feel so odd, I don't know what age group I fit into. I'm all of 26 but I feel older sometimes.
I know intimately what an outhouse is. The first half of my child hood the lights had wicks, and the only way water ran was from the pot on the stove to the wash basin. I watched the seseme show in high school just so I knew what people were talking about. I learned to type on a completely mechanical typerighter.
I remember participating in renaissance enactements frequently at an early age so that ideas and values from that time period play a part in my view of how things are now. The methods that were used to get the participants to so completely imerse themselves in that time period I wouldn't wish on anyone, but I was there and it is one picture of life I got growing up.
these days I am on the computer, getting used to carrying a cell phone, and am in college.
So I hope those of you that have come by your age honestly don't mind me saying I feel like an old fart.
Oh and I've been here since I was 23 :)
Move over Tom and let the real old fogy in... :dance
Let's see, I've been here since before I was 60, but I have a feeling there was at least one re-suscribe needed back in the dark ages, so it may be a bit longer than that.
Where did all these young'uns come from?

I may not be the youngest but I enjoy knowing there are kids in my age group here. Not that I don't enjoy the wiser, well aged of the writers. I love this place and everybody whos here. I started at 15 and am hoping to keep going strong lol. By the way I just registered a few weeks ago.

I think i first started coming to AC back when i was a senior in high school. Since then I've graduated high school, college and have been in the work force for 2 years. My fingers tell me thats 7 years but that just doesnt seem right! I know i've had too re-create my account at least 3 times here but it could honestly be more.
I think i could be one of the oldest members with the lowest post count, quick Reefscape to the archives!

I've only been here for a year, but I've learned a lot in that period of time.
When I was a kid and first getting into fishkeeping, it was nothing like today! Nobody had ever heard of "cycling" back then (or at least none of my references had).
