I'm 62, and I'm not old yet, you're just a kid. ;-)
Seriously, there are some folks here who started on punch cards and/or paper tape in the 1960s.

30 years ago my coworkers called me Grandpa, so I get it both ways.

Thanks. I meant is more of in a joking way, poking fun at the community. I know I'm far too young to earn a gray beard, but I hope to in the next 20-30 years ;-) I still got a lot to learn till that happens

I played with punch cards and polystyrene test samples from the Standard Oil Refinery where my father worked in the early 70’s and my first language after basic was Fortran 77. Not old either.
