> [@johnpost](#): > > what year is this? I don’t know: they all look the same to me. And this poll is similar to [How old are you?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=554352) and [What age range do you fall into?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=610944) which gave very similar results. ---
