Well, I didn't reply earlier, but I'm just about the average (33).
I heard once that the diference between man and boys was the price of the
toys. I think it's right. In this case it means the amount of Lego sets :-)
I'm still a beginner, but it seens a one-way trip...

By the way, I just acquired technic set 8445 (Indy Storm). It has lots of
pieces that can be used with mindstorms. That's why I bought it in first
place. I believe Supercar set (8448) would be better, but I couldn't find it
here in Brazil. The 8445 set has a steering mechanism but it seens to weak
to motorize. My next step with will be to add RCX to control it. I may need
to change and reinforce the steering mechanism. Ideas, anyone?

I acquired set 8251 (sonic cycle) also. It's has some technic small pieces
and a suspension piece. Since it's cheap it may be worthwhile if you are
looking for more small axles, half beams, etc.

Based on replies made to me privately, and to this forum here are
the results [which do not really have any statistical value]:

Average age - 33.95 years
Youngest - 5 years
Oldest - 65 years
Most common age - 31 years
Most common age group - 30's
Least common age group - 50's

(I only counted people who actually emailed a reply, even though I
know lots of people in all age groups who use Lego.)
