Is this some .NET convention that references to instances start with capital letters?

Yeah, properties (like a field but with a getter and/or setter method, may or may not be backed by a field) are PascalCase

How is OldMan a property here? It's clearly the name of a class

Instance properties are PascalCase.

Okay, but this makes more sense as an instance method rather than a static one
