How many respondents so far?

What is the average age? The median age? The mode? If you're at it, how about the standard deviation as well? Confidence interval? Beta factor?

Just kidding...............I would be delighted to see many more younger folks join this hobby. The results of this survey may indicate that, as a whole, we are geting younger....but I doubt it.

If I'm wrong in my assessment, TERRIFIC..... Let's keep the trains rolling!!
