I was wondering which of us is the oldest. I know some of you guys are in your 50's (although you look and act like you're 20) but are there any real old skool maggots? Who is the village elder around here?

I wouls wager a guess of GT 40 of all the mags I have met
"if the city is visibly one of humankind's greatest achievements, its uncontrolled evolution also can lead to desecration of both nature and the human spirit."

Not me, despite the name...
I see you have not yet met our very own mayor of tech talk - Pechelman.
According to his affirmation and other testimony, Pechelman turned 128 last tuesday. This information may or may not be exact however, as the only record of his birth was one which was written into his family bible. A non-combat veteran, he was two months into training when World War I ended on 11 November 1918. Pechelman has repeatedly apologized for still being alive, but claiming "pWning JONGs on the Teton Gravity Research message board" (a site on the internets) that keeps him young and vibrant. Few people are aware that Pechelman was actually the mastermind behind the development of the 'interweb" back in the early 1940's, but his operation was halted by the U.S. government when they needed the gold used for the circuitry to instead go towards the war effort. This "interweb" was later *cough* re-invented and brought into mainstream use by Albert Gore, former Vice President of The United States and inventor of global warming, in 1988. Pechelman's penchant for tinkering started long before this feeble computer advent, though. As a young man growing up in Ohio, he was responsible for drawing the blueprints for the construction of the world's first flying machine under the oversight of his longtime childhood friends, Orville And Wilbur Wright. Below is the only known photograph of Pechelman:

Jeez, I'm finally good at something!
It's hard to wag your tail when it is tucked between your legs.
Iceman could not possibly die of aids. He stopped having sex long before aids became a human disease. (Had viagra been around in the eighties, things might have been different, though.) He is an old fart... but it takes one to know one...
edit: Excellent work BSS

Screw the net, Surf the backcountry!
I think BigDaddy went to L-S before Wayland and Maynard seceded.
That said, no one could possibly be older than lobstahmeatwad. He learned to sew seat covers from Betsy Ross herself and his arthritis prevents him from mountain biking.
I believe irul was present for the Louisiana Purchase.
Verbier61? And it's been a few years since he joined, so add a bit more to that number.
Damn, BSS, nice.
I believe that post makes you hier to the "elder" title, if Pechelman ever proves to be mortal that is...
There's nothing better than sliding down snow, flying through the air
