Technically,

"Looking to train a young, fast-thinking developer." could actually mean a beginner/novice programmer.

I'm not sure that _age_ limitations actually has anything to do with this post. I read this as "Looking to train a novice, fast-thinking developer"

@Gabe: thats what you meant, no?

Your job posting violates the age discrimination law.

See the The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission webpage at
http://www.eeoc.gov/facts/age.html

"...The ADEA [Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967] generally makes it unlawful to include age preferences, limitations, or specifications in job notices or advertisements. A job notice or advertisement may specify an age limit only in the rare circumstances where age is shown to be a “bona fide occupational qua lification” (BFOQ) reasonably necessary to the normal operation of t he business..."
