    You ask a 19-year old musician what kind of music he plays, and he responds, "Nothing you would like." :sigh:

    Maybe it was your pointy ears and serious face and not how old you look? :-\

        Yesterday my wife stopped by a mexicanish fast food place to grab dinner. On the audio system was playing "Don't stop believing" by Journey and the 20 some girl in front of my 53 year old wife said to the teen behind the counter, "Hey, cool music" to wit the kid said "yeah", which is a lot for a teen boy. Anyway , all is not lost. .... And it's all mixed up too btw.

                Did he repeat his question? For all you know he may have asked you "Would you like to hear VanDyke?" Hearing can get affected at an old age you know.

                          That doesn't make you old, it makes him an a-hole :) Ultimately there's only one person who can decide if you like a certain style of music and that's you. I've been at the biggest metal festival in Europe and I've witnessed an 80+ or so grandpa in leather jacket walking the festival terrain with his walking rack :laugh: The 19-year old musician could've had a new fan and instead of posting about being old you could be posting about his fantastic music right now, which potentially could've make him even more fans :) Or perhaps he knew he sucked :laugh:

                            That's nothing. About 6 years ago, I got on the bus and a woman soldier gave up her seat for me!* * I was only 44 at the time, but I must have looked terrible that day.

                              I do and prefer them over the STL (I also use VS6, which is not very compatible with STL. Not my choice.) as I know their reliability or lack of so and their working and logic. They are simple and allow me to easily use their features without having to modify much in my code.
