POLL: Deciphering the Demographic

[rlord1974]

Another %$#@! poll? Seriously?! Ah,..... why not?

What makes it worse is that this poll has been done in the past. However, it's been a while and this post got me thinking, with all of the talk about new members coming onto the forum in recent months, is this really the case.....

most people here seem to be similarly "old" (ie... teenagers in the 80s)

So post up your birth year, and let's take a reading.....

This is 1962 for those of you who never had to learn anything or were born in the 80's (same thing).

I figured those who didn't know would cheat and use the "Online Roman Numeral Calculator"

Back in our day, before electricity, we actually learned roman numerals in school. Why? Beats the shit out of me, although I can tell you what year that MGM movie was released when they roll credits

'71 The year the Muscle car died...

Thought the muscle car died in '73 when they went to the 5 mile an hour bumper.

Its amazing how much vintage music gear parallels classic cars as to what years are considered 'good'.

As far as age, I just caught the 70's.

and to whoever said kids born in the 80's didn't learn anything, if only you knew how little kids THESE days are learning. nearly all of my friends are teachers and their lesson plans are so completely dumbed down because kids don't have attention spans anymore it's not even funny (and whatever little attention span they do have is dominated by entertainment media - which has also fried much of their brain cells); and they STILL fail miserably. it's pathetic.
