Well, I think I'm an AFOL. I'm 39 and my collection is reaching 200K pieces,
(fairly small, from an US point of view, but I'm Italian... ;-))
Still, I never played with LEGO as a child. (I had a lot of FisherTechnik
when I was a teen)
My son (seven) despite having a lot of '80 and early '90 sets to play with,
wants me to buy that Bionicle things....
I don't know what this mean for the future of LEGO AFOLs, by I'm not really
happy...

P.S.: ok, I admit, some gears from my son's Bionicles are now in my
drawers.....
