Before 30? Nay, before one is 16 one should get as familiar as possible with the principles of valid argument (informal logic). For a start, see:
http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/logic-informal/
http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/A336999
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informal_logic
Keep on reading.
Cheers,
Ticticus

Plato before 16!
i'z busy dropping out when I was that age!
Plato's dialogues of Socrates, however, did have a resounding effect on my thinking when I was about 25. I went to the local community college and got a valueable education. Not a degree, but i was on the dean's list.
Anyway, sorry if i missed your point. I didnt follow the links, just saw plato and had to comment.
