I found this link at the Dan’s website that lets you know what other people accomplished at what age. So you type in your age and see what others have done at the same age as you and you get all depressed and stuff. No, kidding. So, I took a look and here’s what it popped up for the age of 31 –
At age 31:
French Egyptologist Jean Francois Champollion deciphered the Rosetta stone.
British physician Thomas Wedgwood produced the first photograph.
Eli Terry produced clocks with interchangeable parts. He also introduced the free-trial, no-money-down sales method.
Gregory Pincus achieved in-vitro fertilization of rabbits. Later he invented the birth control pill.
Dennis Kucinich was the youngest person ever elected to lead a major American city (Cleveland).
Hmm, not very impressive and I have never heard of any of these people before. So I’m ok!
Ha! I am SOOO not clicking that link!
*goes off to cry at being old*
There, there. Come on Techno. That’s a good girl. Lol!
Ugh, 34 for me. Star Spangled Banner was published. I only found this blog because I just finished doing an article, review and informational history for the Rosetta Stone and the software company that has taken on it’s name. Champollion was actually 3 years younger than myself, and I never knew that during my research, and I wish I didn’t know that now. Click the link only if you want to be disappointed with yourself.
