Amen.

That is why I use the Master to Apprentice thing all the time.
I don't care what field it is.

Somebody that has been doing things for 40 years or more knows substantially 
more than a wet behind the ear kid with 4 years of theory and zero years of 
experience.

And in counter-point, "Older Is Wiser: Study Shows Software Developers'
Skills Improve Over Time"

http://news.ncsu.edu/releases/wms-murphyhill-age-2013/

"There is a perception in some tech circles that older programmers aren't able to 
keep pace with rapidly changing technology, and that they are discriminated against in 
the software field. But a new study from North Carolina State University indicates that 
the knowledge and skills of programmers actually improve over time - and that older 
programmers know as much (or more) than their younger peers when it comes to recent 
software platforms."
