the age range here on du, please.
i predict either the 40's group or 50's group the largest number. but, i am curious.
though, this may be one of the polls people do not want to vote in because of transparency. i am curious about that, also.
***edit: something else i like about this poll. an half hour and there are 101 vote already. that tells me there are more people on du, than what i was thinking. it has seemed slow of late, and i am thinking that use is down. but a lot of people not posting, are reading. that is nifty. ***

1. You may not get an accurate reading from this, but DU's membership is older than many people think. Still, not many DUers take the time to vote in polls, so it won't really give an accurate result.
(I'm in the 61-70 group)

13. Especially now that you can view usernames!
I've seen a few names in an age category that surprised me.

42. There is no older than dirt selection. Abstain.

71. I knew we were a bunch of old fogeys around here
That is why I get so nervous when everyone acts like their political activism began some time after George W. Bush became president.
Makes me start wondering who were these folks voting for during the 1980's?
Don
Grouchy old Don didn't answer, but he's 58-59 years old, maybe even 60 now.

78. Half of DU is going to be dropping off like flys soon
One can hope.

83. We've lost so great voices over the years in all age stratums.
But yes statistics are not in our favor.
Yeah.
The statistics surely aren't in the primitives' favor.
Too bad for the primitives.

88. so 86% are over 40 - and 64% are over 50
interesting

When $kimmer first opened the door at DUmmyland, I thought that most of the posters had to be teenagers just because they are so naive about everything in life. It was revealed before too long that most of them are baby boomers. This made sense because the hippies from the 1960's had to be somewhere doing something. I know some hippies grew up and joined the real world, but there also were plenty of them who never grew up and stayed as far away from the real world as they could.

That looks to be about what the Alexa stats say about the DUmp demos.

51-60...
so all of the hippies from yesteryear. :)

How's that Rove vs. Wade working out for you primitives?

Proof that smoking pot stunts your mental growth.

How's that Rove vs. Wade working out for you primitives?
Or Roe v. Wade. Plus, how many of them are gay? Not looking good for the survival of DUmmiekind.

Some of them are mentally younger than their actual age from what I have seen

lumpy
And yes, it looks like most of the slobbering, hate-filled GD crowd are aging, frustrated, '60s counterculture types.

Remember, DUmmies lie, all the time, about everything.
I'll bet two-thirds of them are lying about their age.
-
I did note that later in that thread white_wolf, one of our DOTY finalists, admitted to being 22. Not surprising. Your public education tax dollars at work folks.

Or Roe v. Wade. Plus, how many of them are gay? Not looking good for the survival of DUmmiekind.
True enough. Conservatives tend to be heterosexual and choose life. Eventually we will significantly outnumber them via attrition.
-
So, according to their own poll, 80% of them are 41-70.
Sure blows the lid off that whole "with age comes wisdom" myth. :lmao:

If you've done lots of drugs, the wisdom leaves one's head like a firehose spraying a fire at an oil refinery. :fuelfire:
