Five years ago we made an enquiry on he list; I collected the answers 
and found out that of more than 50 regular contributors, at the time, 
the average age was 55.
It's probably somewhere between 55-60 now; I don't think there have been 
a significant number of younger newcomers since then.
Jack Palmer was the second oldest at the last count...
