Poll question: when is a person considered "old"

[trackfan]

1. 25 years older than my current age seems about right.

[anarch]

2. 900 years old

I would consider that person to be pretty old.

3. Physical age or mental age?

I am considerably younger mentally than I am physically.

4. It depends. When I was a kid, everybody past late teens was old.

When I was a young adult, I thought middle-aged was old.

Now the late octogenarians aren't quite old to me, but they're headed that direction ...

5. The day you read an article in "The Wall Street Journal" from beginning to

end, is the beginning of the end of your life. It means that you have nothing else to live for but the lonliest activity in the world: counting your money.
