A Sobering Thought

Yesterday, a batchmate and I were having a conversation on blogging and bloggers. An excerpt from the conversation.

UC: Oh, I chatted with that guy on Google Talk the other day. He does not seem to have too much work. He is in the IAS. About 40 years old.
DC: 40? That old? I thought he was much younger.
UC: Younger?
DC: Ya, I thought he was a few years older than us.
UC: Well, if he is 40, then he IS a few years older than us.

Aack!
