Well, I guess it depends on how you define "contributor." There was
someone on this list the other day who is *13*, beating Sasha by a few
years, and in 1989 I had been computing on UNIX for about 5 years --
my initial computing was in 1966, at Saschas age, writing assembly on
a CDC 3200. And I very much doubt that I am the oldest guy messing
around with PHP on this list 8^) And the 13 y-o and myself are both in
the US, I believe. But I think it wonderful that we can all be peers
across the generations...
Cheerio, Rick Rodgers
