that's because: "(I've probably been in the industry longer than 
you've been alive ;)"

Recent research indicates that the reason older folk think 
"slower" is that they have more memories to go through to find 
what they are looking for (tested with word finding).
It is reasonable to conclude that older = wiser, not slower.

OTOH, I wonder if all the brain space I used for comics and 
science fiction (that I still remember) was a good brain space 
investment ?
