    The web site is only working 1/10 times, and I don't get all the way through the test. I think it's a bluff. They're not really determining your age depending on your clicks - They're measuring your stress threshold! :~

        Damned thing guess my age at 10... I may act like it some times, but I'm pretty sure I am not. Though it would be nice to be 10 again, no, let's make that 21. If I could choose an age to be again I should damn well be able to drink.

        It was broke, so I fixed it.

          Very unstable site, but I finally made it through. It said 30, I'm 46 (and I've got a body like a 58 year old). So much for science... :laugh:

                It is just as good at guessing age as I am at guessing which horse will win the 5th at Randwick next Saturday. Makes me feel better.

                                Oh dear - it thinks I am 45 - but I'm 63. But I think I am 28!

                                  Our best guess is that you are 32. Is it close? Yes it was very clos. I'm 36. Impressive! :)

                                    I'd like the body of a 22 year old. But Herself would only complain if I brought her home. :sigh:
