I would ask, but I don't have a dog.

I don't know anyone's age unless he mentions it, posts a selfie or gives some relevant info. I don't even think about such things. If someone posts he saw Syd Barrett in concert during college, I can get a good idea.

For the record, I'm a Midwestern native raised to be polite and courteous, so am for good manners no matter what the ages involved. Remove the age aspect and insert 'new people,' and I agree with the initial post.

Cliched but true: only as old as you feel. And there are many times when going through my collection I still feel like it's 1984 and I'm 14

I'm of the ripe young age of 25 even though some mornings I feel wayyyyyy older than that. I actually appreciate that the majority of collectors are older/quite a bit older than me. I love the knowledge they possess and consider it a valuable resource for me. Even though I have been collecting for 20 years there is soooooo much to learn and the old folks help haha
