Barbara asked Jacob M. Appel:

How current is your profile picture? Is it like the dating sites where you're really 60+ yo., & put up an old photo to fool women? You look way too young to have so many degrees & so many published books. Love your sense of humor by the way!

Jacob M. Appel You've caught me! I dare not reveal my actual age or I'll have to stop trick-or-treating on Halloween and paying the children's fare at the movie theater, but I will confess I accompanied Olivia de Havilland to her high school prom.... Alas, my track record at fooling women is rather limited. I did manage to convince my third grade teacher that I was a distant cousin of the Russian royal family, but I can't say this opened any romantic doors....
