Well, if I'm 5o today and average
my age over the next ten years, when I'm 60 my average age for the 10 years will be 55. Not bad for a 60 year old.

Well I spose this should be appropriate to put here.
John Stewart of the Kingston Trio fame just died. A true legend.
I think this thread may be worthy of this clip.

What a coincidence.  For some reason, yesterday morning, I was googling his name and reading his web info.  What a coincidence that is.  Yessir, a coincidence.  :)

  Sure is an interesting bell shaped curve. I'm not at the top yet, but the crest is right ahead!

We have a discussion going on in the sawmill board called LINK>> age of sawmillers

I thought I would start a poll where we could get an idea. Before the results even start coming in, I'm betting it is in the mid 40's :)

Jeff, you'd better "up" that a bit by the looks of it.

Yeah, it corresponds to what we found when woodlot owners were polled. The average age was around 58.  ;)

Man, what a nice "bell curve".  I'm surprised too Jeff that the average age is a bit older than I thought, although I thought it would be one step up from you.

That curve is "textbook" though.  Good distribution of ages.
