1. I haven't. But our standard age limits are pretty dumb
You can drive at 16,
Vote and get Drafted at 18,
Legally drink alcohol at age 21???

:wtf:

I think we should just set one age for everything. Sixteen sounds fair enough -- save for the draft, of course.

5. 21.
Or do you think bars in the student lounge of a commuter college are a great place for kids to stop just before they drive home? Because that's what they had set up at Queens College before the legislature regained its sanity and upped the age to 21 again.

7. Wait. Let's compromise.
Drink at 16. Drive at 21.
