I recall this being mind-blowing when I was 16. I expect it to be less mind-blowing now, not so much because I'm older, but because I think each person only has so many times they can get their mind blown.
I think it was valuable to me at the time, less valuable to me having had my mind-subsequently blown by the Sequences, which are more coherent and with greater sense of purpose behind them.
Yeah this was super awesome in the seventh grade. Not so impressive these days.
Worth noting that my dad also thought it was pretty awesome (lending credence to that "how many times has your mind been blown and to what extent" metric of awesomeness, rather than "how old were you."
One of the day's lucky 10,000 I guess.
