I'm 63 years old and learned to play Bridge when I was a senior in high

young people are interested in the game. Therefore, I am quite surprised
by the very large amount of message traffic in this newsgroup, for two
reasons. The first is that Usenet newsgroups in general seem to be
falling out of favor compared to a few years ago, and the second is that
many people my age are not particularly computer literate.

What is the age distribution of today's Bridge players?

I can say that my partner and I went to the bridge club earlier this
week. There were about 40 tables in play. With a combined age of
about 105, my partner and I were probably not the youngest pair there,
but maybe 2nd or 3rd. Admittedly, this is in Sarasota, FL, but still.
