That is what you say Blaine, I have yet to substantiate your claims

I will be 26 in 9 days , been in the hobby for a little over 2 years now, fresh water since I was about 7-8 years old.......

I love the results here, apart from the 10-19 category, what an almost perfect Guassian distribution.

To be honest I'm surprised at the low #'s in the 10-19 category. That can't be indicative of the hobby, can it? I'm guessing it's really a higher percentage in the hobby in that age group but they're just disproportionately "not on Canreef" per se.

It doesn't surprise me too much to see the highest numbers so far of people in their 20's. That makes total sense to me.

I'm in the 30-39 category, and will be for a tiny little while longer (more than one year left in that category )

The flip side:

Sure there are more 20 - 29s in here than anything else but there are FAR more ppl over 30 than under it =)

I'm riding the razor's edge. A cross-section of my wood reveals 30 rings though perhaps the tree anology is not the best. I realize there are some perverts roaming these parts.

I would have never thought anything "weird" about the tree analogy until you insinuated people may turn the tree wood into...well you know what Im getting at.

I too should be working. My deadline for some work is Monday yet I still am not very motivated and terribly behind. I will just tell the client I got a new skimmer, I'm sure they will understand. I think I have used the "oh my internet was down yesterday, sorry I couldn't contact you......oh my phone went through the washing machine so I couldn't call...I didn't have a quarter for a payphone cause I only use debit..." excuse too many times now
