Age & worldview

A day or so ago, someone started a "how old are you" thread, but, because of its format, it was difficult to extract any meaningful data from it.

Assuming, first of all, that NSers have no reason to lie or skew the data, please "vote" in the poll.

I think it could be very telling - much like the "veterans" data.

Please keep this thread moving to ensure valid/cross-sectional data. :D

How does the worldview factor come in?

Schrodinger! Can't answer that now. Observation of the experiment will skew the results.

You forgot "ageless", see the NS Profiles thread.

I can't wait 'til our "honored elder" Eutrusca gets on here. He'll smack you for calling him a geezer. :p

Considering I added that just for our good Grunt Capitan, I fully expect to. :D

how long do we have to wait for the conclusions of this experiment?

How very suprising, a pessimistic socialist. </sarcasm>

I'm 21 and I'm a classical liberal, none of this new fangled "liberalism". My political hero is Thomas Jefferson and I'm very optimistic about mankind. I'm definitely not anti-war, freedom is worth fighting for.

I started the "how old are you" thread
I did not include a poll because those simple polls always die within some some minutes, as no one posts in them.

Maybe they do die, but not this one!

I'm desperately trying to avoid 30 by becoming a rockstar and dying at 27. Time's running out. :p

Ok, as of 2208 GMT -6 I have closed the poll. (probably should of had it time out...)

I will be parsing data this weekend.

FYI I have over 10,000 lines of data in addition to this poll to work out, so bear with me. :eek:

Haven't we waited long enough? Let's see what age has to do with world view already.
