I think the cutoff is 35, isn’t it? Like I said, I’m too old. But who knows? Maybe Condi will change the rules for me.

It amuses me to no end how the groups screaming “diversity!” are some of the least diverse around. State could use a few geezers like me…

No way. I’m living proof that you can make it too. True, there are very few of us, and many more like Croddy; but the likes of you are needed here, Scott. But getting through that interview phase can be a bear. It may be that you’d need to keep your political views tucked away till you’ve got an acceptance letter.
