Umm...the same is true for WIN developers... I haven't met many who
aren't grumpy (by the way I know plenty of "overaged" WIN devs...). As
to the overaged...i really hate that you feel that way. I still see
younger folks in the RPG realm maybe not in the numbers seen in WIN,
etc. arena but then again...there are too many PC devs needed since the
platform and tools are not as stable and have a larger install base than
the midrange arena. I'm sure if you did a true analysis you'd find that
the ratio of new blood based on install base of the platforms that the
numbers would be much closer than you realize.
And Scott you're probably right...coffee is what keeps me going...
And yep I'm likely overaged and grumpy...but my mind is still agile I
just wish it knew where I was going............
Thanks,
Tommy Holden

You're probably catching them before they get their coffee...
