It would allow those of us ” built” before Porsche’s first Beetle to stumble without shouting from our young Turks, or locking a post because it was covered earlier……….. Sad

You don't have to be a senior to ask a question that's been covered time and again. I've been posting here for ages and I make mistakes from time to time. Just don't get your feelings hurt and you'll do just fine.

The moderators are going to hate me for saying this...
The search function on The Samba is finicky at best and sometimes the easiest way to find something is to start a thread about it and wait for someone else to yell at you and give you all the links you couldn't find yourself.

Why? I don't see any reason for this separation.

It's easier to use the Google search by entering text in the box in the upper-right of every page on the site.

Wanna see my two trick canes? Nah I don't think it's necessary. Old people like to call anyone not born on the same day as them "young ums", even if they are only 1 week younger. Cute but not a good idea.

But perhaps a thread for senior discounts Wink

Don't seperate me. It's the younger people that I learn from mostly.
By the time most folks my age finally get it together, they forgot where they put it. Smile

Hey Bill, most guys on this website are senior.
Don't mind the young interns, some of them wear skirts.

Three Samba Seniors are walking through a swap meet.
"Man it's windy!"
"No it's not. It's Thursday..."
" Yeah, I'm thirsty too. Let's get a beer..."
