I'm 28, I've used Emacs for ~8 years.  The age distribution seems to
be interestingly even, many people from almost every decade of adult
life.

I would have thought that there would be two sets of people: Young
people who discovered Emacs via the web and Linux/GNU recently and a
older generation that discovered it installed on *nix machines at
their work or university.  But it seems not, if the thread is
representative then a steady stream of people have been introduced to
it for a long time.
