I believe my parents were dating, but they were not yet married and I
was not yet conceived.  This makes me something of a youngster on
Usenet today despite being over 50, which certainly was not the case
when I was 16 and fresh out of high school.

On the other hand, I think I am a bit more judicious in my posting
habits.

I'll be leaving for Worldcon in a few days and I entirely expect to
feel thoroughly middle-aged there, sandwiched in between the Young
People and the American retirees.
