36. Well I'm old, and I think it's a horrible idea.

No offense to you (I can see that you're disgusted, too), but did those 55+ older people ever get sent to Vietnam or Korea?

I honestly don't know any specifics, and don't really want to know, but back then, they drew names by dates of birth... a lottery-type thing. You were assigned a number according to your birthdate.
