Actually, Paul, I think you are crowding the upper
limit, at least of role players. Anders is one of the
few gamers I know who is older than I am (I'm 62) and
that's only by a couple of years, if I remember
correctly. Gary Gygax is older than I am by several
years, but I don't think he hits 75. Dave Arneson is
younger than Gary, I believe. Lynn Willis of the
Chaosium may be up there, I forget how much older than
I am that he is, somewhere in the 10-15 range. And
that's about it.
 
There were a lot of miniatures and board gamers I knew
that were older than me back when I was really active
in my 30s and early 40s, but how many of them are
still alive?

I am quite aware I am crowding it, but I am no record
holder.  John Boardman (publishes a couple of RPG
fanzines, PBM archivist, CAR-PGa member, etc.) is the
year older one I mentioned.  I hardly think he is a
record holder either.

I am just looking for active players, not necessarily
game creators or other "clebrities".
