&gt; &gt; &gt; Occupation: Foole  :P  Student, primariy, Simulation design Co-Op to pay
&gt; &gt; &gt; the bills. (as a side note, I am probably one of the younger members of
&gt; &gt; &gt; the list, weighing in at age 23)
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; I'm also a student, but waiting on return from my university application.
&gt; 
&gt; Which university would that happen to be?

Wright State U, in my case, tho I believe you were asking Matt.  :)
 
&gt; &gt; I think I can claim the accolate of youngest, since I am only 18 (I feel
&gt; &gt; older, if that counts!)
&gt; 
&gt; I rarely divulge my real age over the i-net because I have found as much
&gt; as people say that they acknowledge all ideas based on their own merit
&gt; instead of the "experience" (which I have sadly found is almost always
&gt; considered proportionate to age not actual experience) I have not been
&gt; take seriously in some circles. I think I can claim the title of
&gt; youngest being of age 15 (16 in April). 

I would have guessed a bit higher, but I shall do my best to forget the 
actual age.  I do my best to disembowel any of those nasty prejudices 
that pop up from time to time, but I find it best to just short-circuit 
the whole mess by ignoring key info that triggers the prejudice. :)
 
&gt; My personal interest in mu*'s started with the "ow, wow, I want one of
&gt; those" comments. As I actually began to take my own MUD's creation
&gt; seriously I started to collaborate on other projects and really get into
&gt; C and some of perl (the perl came from an in-the-browser MUD named
&gt; ROCK). Currently I am taking a set of structured courses on C (though I
&gt; tend to have more fun doing the "learn by hacking" method). 

aye, hacking is more fun, but 'structured' courses have a lot to offer as 
well.  If I recall, there are a couple other ppl on the list who are self 
taught... or there were at one point.  I'd say about 1/2 of my training 
is from classes, the other half from tinkering.  It probably also helps 
that I am a programmer's son... computers have been in my blood for as 
long as I recall. :)
