There’s some stuff on this website discussed that I think shouldn’t be seen by anyone 13 or under. That got me thinking, who’s the youngest poster we have? If anyone thinks they might be it speak up. Though I’m one of the older ones, I know my 17-year-old started a thread about Watergate, so 17 is the age to beat. ---

I know there are some 15 and 16 year olds around-dunno who they are though. ---

I turn 15 in 2 weeks. For this “youngest” competition, I’ll go ahead and admit - I’m only 14. Heh. ---

Well like you said before, I also somewhat feel that my standing as a dope has dropped. Not that it was really high to begin with 😉 Although, I never would have imagined that you were only 15 **saephiroth** , you seem much smarter and mature than that. 🙂 ---

I’m thinking of letting my son register just so he could beat allayalls. He’s a regular reader and has been begging to join for about six months now. His 14th birthday was this June. Naah. He’s too young. ---

I’m the only 7 year old medical professional I know. :wipes sweat from brow: **ALRIGHT!!!** I’m not 7. I’m lying. It’s just that my therapist says that I have this desperate need for recognition and… _nevermind_. ---
