Hey Chris, why did you give the olds wider age ranges?

You reckon there are fewer of us?

And you're assuming that nobody of 70+ posts?

So the ones in the 30s are neither too young to care nor don't give a sh1t because they'll be dead anyway!

I can see the sense in that because you often find big differences in attitude between people in their early 20's and the next lot up. Car insurance often plummets at age 26 because people get more of a sense of responsibility, the insurance co's aren't daft.

As, just as I thought - a bunch of irresponsible kids with over-active imaginations.

I take it all the 20-25's are out there buying everything hook line and sinker and striving for that ?350,000 mortgage lol.

37 here - child of the 70's hence peak oil is a doddle I ate grass for sweets and lived in a corner of a cardboard box and played up the mountians every winter in shorts and tee shirt - and loved it!

Cardboard box? CARDBOARD BOX?

You jammy git ... we were so poor that our family of 17 lived in a boiled sweet wrapper ... and we were proud, PROUD I tell you. Our home was spotless .. you could have eaten off the floor ... that's if we had had any food of course.

Gosh! Look at that! What a nice bell curve with quite a steep decline after the peak! Doesn't it ring a bell?
