I think Pam already knows my answer.

I am 41 and started turning gray at about 28. I have a history on one side of my family of all the women going silver by the time they are 30-35. Thankfully, that didn't happen to me, but at 41, I am about 75% gray. The "other" side of my family has a history of no gray hair. I think my mother and my sister take after my grandmother and her father, who at a very late stage of life, had little or no gray hair. I will say that I have a lot MORE hair than they do.

I take a very different attitude to Debbie (Tubby and Peanut's Mom), and some of the others. I am NOT ready to be gray. I told my husband that I would give up anything, EXCEPT, my 8 week appointment with the hairdresser to have my hair colored. Maybe it is because Scott is 5 years younger than I am. Maybe it is because of vanity. I'm just not ready to be gray. I tried home coloring before, but it is not cheap, nor is it permanent and it took me a lot of time. So I give up about 1 1/2 hours, every 8 weeks, plus about $60 to have my hair colored and cut. It's worth every bit of it to me!!!
