If you are truly old school, consider it to be a badge of honor. It means you have experience, paid your dues, and established a deep foundation of knowledge that you can continuously build on. As long as you keep learning, those fresh out of school who only know the cutting edge cannot keep up. There is no better teacher than experience, and sooner than you think, today's cutting edge will be old school.
Update: from Wikipedia:
In slang, old school can refer to anything that is from an earlier era and looked upon with high regard or respect, including music, clothing and language.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
