Joyce,
I'm sure he is 50+ or  even more. Old dogs (like me) often need to prove
that we are still to count upon and it can result in such peculiar and
pathetic writings, while younger people do not waste their time on
self-assertion. Elderly (like me) not seldom become argumentative and go to
attack...with open fly....
