Oh, the idea is wonderful, it's a new sub-forum, and needs some cultivation

As for the name, we knew beforehand some will object to the name, there's no way around it. Some wanted 50+, some said well how about 40+, 60+.. Some said "old" is offensive, some said "50 years young" is offensive, etc.

So we chose the least objected to name. So, if anyone still objects to this name, we'd love if they'd help us, and come with another name that no one objects to

BTW, how about Baby Boomers+ (not my creation, it was from a PM)

Wa'il
