Kube, I just put you at 73 as my head hurt figuring coded ages

87 x3
86 x3
85 x2
84 x4
83 x5
82 x5
80 x1
79 x3
78 x5
77 x7
76 x8
75 x4

65 x4
63 x2
62 x2
61 x1
60 x2
55 x1
54 x1
50 x1
32 x1

7381 divided by 99 ppl = 74.5yr old average

To date as of post #120

Average member age: 74

Don't forget, age is only a number. Its all about your state of mind, until the body speaks up louder.

I am happy to report that I am keeping up with you. As long as the gap between us remains precisely the same, we are both doing just fine.
