<P><FONT face=Arial,Helvetica size=+1><I><B>Old Fart Index</B></I></FONT><BR><B>I've seen this passed around on several mailing lists recently. I'm not sure what the origin of this is, but it's quite amusing:</B><BR><BR><I>From Master Yehudah of Nuremburg:<BR><BR>I had this half-baked idea at the beginning of the war and I let it ferment. I now believe it is fully baked and ready for public consumption..<BR><BR>For years a fair number of our senior members of the society have been given and earned various unofficial titles regarding their age. I wish to standardize the terminology and therefore, I developed the Old Fart Index based on a simple axiom.<BR><BR>The Old Fart Index (OFI) Rule states:<BR>OFI is the person's chronological age in years (commencing at birth), aggregated with their years in the SCA. Mathematically this is represented as:<BR><BR><B>OFI = MYr + SYr.</B> (Where 'MYr'
is Mundane Years and 'SYr' is Society Years.)<BR>(Please note that the OFI is gender neutral...)<BR><BR>When applied to the following table, the index will precisely indicate the appropriate title to be applied to someone completely irrespective of OP awards.<BR><BR><B>OFI --> Title</B><BR>------------<BR>Under 40: Fodder<BR>41-49: Smart Ass<BR>50-59: Lifer<BR>60-69: Old Fart<BR>70-79: Neanderthal<BR>80-89: Dinosaur<BR>90-99: Fossil<BR>100-109: Primordial Ooze<BR>110+: Gas (hot air)<BR><BR>Example:<BR>Count Sir Denis of the Titans' OFI is 91 (54 + 35). He is officially a 'Fossil'<BR>Lord Vallawulf Rurikson's OFI is 57 (36 + 21). He is a 'Lifer'<BR><BR>Use the index on your friends.... and those not your friends...
