[sdiy] Way OT - Who's the oldest?

[GRAHAM ATKINS]

I'm just a mere 47 years old. Had a forward thinking music teacher  
when 11
played ELP's Pictures At An Exhibition. At 14 messing with PE Minisonic
modules as a school project. First saw Tangerine Dream in 1978, Moog
960 sequencers etc, hooked. Built a Transcendent 2000 (I wonder how many
they sold in total ?) when I was about 20. Broadcast engineer at 21.  
Still
playing with synths now !. There does seem to be a theme building  
between
age / influences / which kits built etc for those of us who were teens  
in the 70's.
