Age? Birthday?

Semi-serious here. But I think it should be required to fill in your birthday including year so people know how old the person is they are talking to.

Once I find out how old someone is, it's puts their opinions into more perspective.

Do you work for the government?

"Once I find out how old someone is, it's puts their opinions into more perspective. "

Really? How so? Why didn't you use the word "age" in place of the word old? Who's perspective do you speak of?

Yes that is a wonderful idea!!!!!!!!

I would estimate there are 3,000 members on this board, so I formally nominate you to form a committee to ck each and every persons age and birth date.

Good idea. I'd like to see this done for height and weight, too.

Race, ethnicity, religion and sexual orientation would be helpful as well.

I happen to know for a fact that baseclogger and camisa are 14 year old twins from Ecuador. Treat their posts accordingly.

Also, tattoos. Please provide info regarding whether you have any tattoos. If you do, provide the number, location, and a brief description of each.

And don't forget, fingerprint cards are due in next Thursday.

Re: Age? Birthday?

You should also mention if you have ever been treated for mental illness. That might explain a lot of posts.
