I'm over 60 and have been using TeX since '85.
Same manual after all these years...
I still seem to be able to learn new stuff,
though it's not always clear it's worth the bother.

So I'm guessing you were 28-38 when you learned TeX, rather than 60+.
If you were over 60 in 1985 and are still posting to HN, that would be really cool.

Indeed, I was 30 and my brain was still plastic.
Really, the only notable thing from my post was the fact I'm still using the same Latex manual after all these years.
Kinda ragged now, but still useful.
