Out of curiosity (in chat), what is the mean age of the forum?
Would be nice of we could get a good sample size. Just post the number in here and somebody cleverer than me can work out the figures.

I’ll start:

43

ok for science…

44

Damn nearly 57.

60

Same as buffy.

:)

56

ok, I’ll start a spreadsheet

Arts said:

Are you claiming to be cleverer than me?

As long as she knows who has second handles, or the stats will be corrupted…

nope. I just know excel spreadsheets after having done statistics this term at uni

trd or even shebs could do the same…

but they aren’t here right now so I’ve got it covered

I guess I left myself open for that. Wasn’t very clever :)

so far the mean is 52 (minus secondary handles :P )

• but they aren’t here right now so I’ve got it covered

I’m here, but as you’ve got it covered…

you need to add to the n= furious

don’t worry we cant trace you via age

It’s a bit of a shame I never registered Clarabelles granddaughter here.:)

you can’t do it furious until you give us your age. it’s a rule.

the judge and Boris are the same age as me. JFTR

You’re not playing this game the right way.
You lose 10 points.

July last year. I don’t get too fussed over birthdays, they’re just a number to me.

pretty much.

I’ve been invited to my 20 year high school reunion. Since it’s 1000 kms away and likely to be a “cruisy afternoon at the local (to my high school)”, I don’t think I’ll bother with it.

Send a cardboard cut-out…..

For 23 years I’ve been dying to tell you what I thought of you. And now, well, being a Christian woman, I can’t say it!

Also, another fun fact: My birthday is exactly 100 days after Spiny Norman’s birfday.

n=17

we need more real numbers. (participants that are considered deceased or lying are omitted from the study)

sibeen isn’t dead arts, he always smells like that.

I’m 65, just to ensure the records remain true and uncorrupted.

Days since last birthday divided by 365 & rounded to one decimal place.

Looks like I might be bringing the mean down a bit.

Exactly two years younger than JTQ.

41, 2 weeks after Xander’s b’day on 10 July.

Many of the deceased are lying.

ruby said:

I’m still 20 years off the pension but in reality, probably more than that because the pension age keeps increasing.

Ahhhh, the cynicism of the young.

Every time I get closer they put the age up again. Bastards. I’m 58.

we only need three more to get a good honest set

n=27

56

Chronologically, 44
Emotionally, 6

438 this year, arrived so by plus 2, times 51, divide by 3, minus 8, times 2, divide by 4

with teleost we are at n=29

52.72

so I think we can safely say the average age is around 52/53

not bad… I’ll keep adding to the stats if people want to add their age, but I think n=29 is sufficient for this forum

With that, i think we have reached our target, n = 30

Are there really that many people here? It thought there was only two.

We are counting each of PostPoc’s personalities separately.

n=34 52.76 (not much change and hasn’t been for quite a few entries)

just added up all my birthdays….4004.

that’s going to skew the results somewhat

Love your work Arts, you’re just so clever and witty and good-looking and stuff – I wish I could be like you :)

Just don’t get creative and draw a Daliesque clock.

Yeah, I’m trying to watch a doco about the Permian Mass Extinction with the other eye. I can’t multi-task.

According to the font of all knowledge, the SMH , the Median age of Australia is 37.
