Default Owner Ages - can it be pulled from Profiles?

There seems to be a new poll in S2000 Talk every month trying to get a gauge on S2000 owners' ages - or the curve.

Here's the latest thread: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...T&f=1&t=365590

My question is, due to the obvious interest in the topic, can a graph or curve be pulled from S2Ki profiles? I know many people don't put birthdates in profiles, but of the 50,000+ people signed up on S2Ki there has to be more than 100-300 (the average number of responses to the S2000 Talk polls) people who do it.

If c3 was so inclined, a database query could be performed and the parsed correctly and the results plotted. Short of that, I think it would be a real headache.

It'll probably be about as accurate as the flags and locations. I think I put my birthday in as something like Feb 30.

It's good to know that there are 90 people less than 6 years old driving S2000s.

I think the older owners are under-represented (40+) because of the nature of this medium. Many folks are unlikely to register on an enthusiast forum.

I think I win the pathetically bored award for the day!





I REALLY wish I had something like Minitab on the Mac. Excel makes me want to punch kittens.
