Some shoe polish to age up and down the scale may help.
If you are perceived as too young, apply some white shoe polish around your
temples, and then complain about the youth of today, and how, in your day,
you were luck to have 16 bits to play with.
If you are perceived as too old, darken your hair with the appropriate color
of shoe polish, and complain about the stodginess of the old people, and how
they complain about having had to work with 16 bits in the old days. Say
"man" and "cool".
