I wish we could get an age pool going and see which age group is dominate. So, (this is going to be bad) I would like to poll an age from everyone on the user list. As to not spam the list, can you please send your age to ubuntu-age-poll at digitaldrifter.net 

**Note to spammers, this email address will only be valid for the next 72 hours so if you want to send spam, you are more than welcome to.
