It is worth noting that this is only relative to oneself. I've always
been very open to new ideas and as a 36 year old I'm sure I'm still more
open to new ideas than a lot of 20 year olds out there :)
I expect we'd find a much higher proportion of free thinkers on this list
than in the general population.
Research shows that the human brain slows as it ages too. This may well
be true but I'm sure I've learnt to make better use of my mental faculties
as I've aged.

Research shows that mental activity and exercise are both important. Not
only decline in capacity but even mental diseases (like dementia) are less
likely if you keep your brain active, I understand.
Cheers,
