It's also the middle of a beautiful summer work day across much of the USA, so most older folks are in front of the computer and able to read and reply to the forum, while the younger folks are probably off doing something fun, like riding a bike, chasing tail, or whatever.

Probably later in the day the balance will shift somewhat.
