SNIP

No, years of experience watching kids like you rise and FALL.
I do remember when I was in my 30's and 40's that I was "full of myself" and a "know it all", and loved to argue....and win. Then, I grew up.

Dale,

These age references achieve nothing. John is a repeat-published author, magazine columnist, and was presenting at conferences in his early 30's (and maybe even earlier). I attended almost every major conference in the '90's, and consistently viewed him as one of the better speakers. And then he got a law degree. Pretty impressive for a 'kid'.

There are more things to being 'grown up' than just the physical aging process.
