Wait just a cotten-picken minute here, that was the Dovster do?
Whilst we're at it why not have a Do where all the men are over 35 and all the women are under 25. We could call it Lechery Do.

Maybe I should propose a 30 to 39 DO now that we've had a few 30th b-days. Oh, but wait... that would exclude at least 3 FTers I'm friends with that haven't had that milestone yet... and a couple who just had their 40th, as well as many who are far on the gap one way or the other of either of those.
As suggested by others, plan an event that has the activities that you think the over 25s might not be interested in if you are really trying to target a certain crowd (although be forewarned, I know 40-somethings on here who are more up with certain DJs, 30-somethings who are on the VIP lists at the hot celebrity-flooded clubs in multiple cities, and 60-somethings who do their exercises every day so they can embarrass a few 20-somethings in any type of physical challenge). See who shows up... you might be surprised at how much fun you have.
Or better yet, there is another Oz-fest in works. Join the fun there... the group is normally so large that many folks end up splintering off into smaller clusters to do things. I've noticed that people with common interests at these big things will naturally gravitate together and you'll be able to hang with your preferred audience.

I think the term "Do" was used for this meeting in a tongue-in-cheek reference.
If you wish to question Randy about this, I would encourage you to drop him a line.
