Average age in this forum

Everyone once and a while i stop in and peruse the posts in this forum. Judging from many of them, id say roughly 1% of the people who come here have actually worked in the industry. So with this in mind, what would each of you guess the average age is here? I'm going to go with 19.

Definitely older that 19. 19 is Freshman in College and most people here are Soph/Jr/Sr or already in IB. A good amount of people here are working in the industry, interned, and or have offers to do so this summer.
