I was wondering about it this evening. I have seen numerous post talking about music and the speakers that people have had over the years and wonder what the average age of a CP member is. It seems that we have a pretty wide range here.


Just Curious...

    The search function is your friend...

    Instead of a redundant NEW poll...just vote in the existing one....

    I promise that I searched. In fact i went back and searched for the old poll and used "average age", the other post title, and did not see it in the first 10 pages of results. How were you able to locate it? Maybe i need to work on my search-fu. lol

    -edit-
    looks like average age of forum pulls it up. I was not putting forum in the search....sorry again. :o i searched for "how old" and "age" I guess that these words are to short.

    I searched for poll and show threads only....

    Anyway...the new guys can post in the old poll and you will get a clearer demographic....
