I've studied 2...d5 for over 50 years and see no reason to change at this late date.
Your birthday is 1968, now we have 2009. 2009-1968 = 51, did you just say you started studying opening theory at the age of 1?
2009-1968 = 41 after all! 50 yrs of d5 and 41 yrs of age!?
Don't you think its reasonable that someone wouldn't put their real age on a website? or maybe '50' years is figuratively speaking/an expression

Name yes, age no
If you're looking for black's sharpest replies to d4, try e5 and f5. You won't encounter any opponents here that know these openings.
I bet that if Ouachita would get out and destroy the chess elite with 1. d4 e5, then we will begin studying a new opening, named after his inventor: "Ouachita's defence". Ah, Ouachita, in case you don't know: OTB people are not allowed to use engines :)

thats a bit direct..
It's possible to be more direct 
Here's a definition of a moron:
Someone who claims a 2500 FIDE rating, that it has expired, and then erases the claim from his profile.
Gentlemen, I give you your moron.
okay this is weird i have to go with the baltic defense
@ ouachita:
Perhaps if you gave a GM quality response instead of some bull like "the Nimzo is probably blacks best option" and instead posted something insightful such as what gonnosuke posted, maybe then some of us would believe that you are legit.

A GM, or any titled player for that matter, would be providing such interesting and informative answers here. 'chita can't mimic that. Instead of sounding like someone who has picked up his chess over the years in the company of strong players, he sounds like some mid-class USCF player hunched over a database and some engines, spouting eco codes and percentages.

Exactly. Note that my request for GM quality analysis from him was sarcastic. I know it will never come.
A disgusting moron is a someone who, although claiming world-class GM strength, is unable to make ANY sound comment about ANY chess position. And when he tries, he just copies/paste something that can be found on the internet. Any moron can say that "in position X line Y is better" (as ouachita did in the vote chess against Becerra). Of course, when asked why, the moron offers just some analysis lines given to him by his engine.

1000x the respect for someone like Gonnosuke, and nothing for liars and frauds.
