If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Wow! Not for nothing you called yourself 'old'!

Inside every old person is a young person, wondering what the hell happened.

Every morning when I look in the mirror I wonder who is in my house - I don't look like that from the inside!

Now all you need to do is post a separate question asking what everyone called their first pet and BOOM... 20 new identities acquired

How did you called your first pet?

I will be 53 in < 2 months. This would make a nice formal survey imo.
It would at least tell you what age group is most likely to take a survey!

I was born 1955 - "still coding after all these years". I believe that is a lyric to one of those ballads you youngsters call 'pop' songs.

Not the oldest, and have only posted twice before, but I do follow CP daily.
Born 1951. Employed as a programmer from 1972 to 2017.
Now retired but still programming as a volunteer for a Christian organization.
And for those talking about fathers, my father was born in 1893 and fought in both world wars.
1914-1918 for the British Army, in Greece.
1939-1945 for the Australian Air Force, in the Middle East.

So far, I appear to be the eldest, with a birth year of 1944. I'd be happy to teach any of you young'uns what I remember offhand about the early days of FORTRAN and COBOL! Of course, eventually I progressed from there to Basic, then C, C++, and finally C# with a bit of JavaScript and a few others thrown in for good measure.
Please wake me in time for my nap!
