Grrr,

since the learning ability lessens with age.
I keep reading this. What are we talking about here? 29? 34? 46? or 86? Studi, what is your age? I would be very surprised to hear that any confident successful and intelligent person in their 40s or 50s found they found it more difficult to learn new things. I can understand that somebody down in the dumps, fed up with their lot or lacking in confidence because they keep getting berated for being past 35 (old?!?! good grief!) and allegedly over the hill. Even my Granddad at the ripe old age of 76 taught himself Spanish. He is now fluent at 82.

Don't bother quoting scientific studies and experts opinions. If there is one thing that one does learn as one progresses through one's life it is that experts are just as clueless, but with lingo.

Tarra!
HWD.

P.S. You may have detected some emotion there too
