And exactly what are your criteria for considering people as old?
The criteria for being 'old' usually has a lot to do with age. Since life expectancy has increased over the years, the age when one is deemed old has increased as well. To avoid insult to those that are concerned by their age I would say that you are not old if you feel young, for I am not one to criticise age nor have I enough years experience to comment. No doubt there is some OB that will rip my comments to shreds with criticism about my use of English or my opinions. None of my comments have been made to offend. I was simply trying to reassure Vonny by stating that she isn't old.

Ever thought about politics as a career Jeeves or the diplomatic corps?

Music Production for me all the way, I have virtually no interest in Politics.
