Should I only get enraged about things that pass your checklist of "importance?" Pardon me, but I do think that underage drinking, particularly dangerous, unsupervised, ignorant underage drinking, is a very important issue, and things like this <I>waste time, money, and good intentions</I> that could be doing something useful and helpful about the issue. That's why I write about things like lowering the legal drinking age, fighting keg registration, and this: because I'd like to see people's time, money, and attention focused on methods and means that work.<BR/><BR/>If you disagree, start your own blog and write about <I>important</I> stuff. This is my blog. I write about what's important -- or interesting, or amusing -- to me. Most folks understand that.Lew Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04084380741402026573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315262155858800734.post-38118618905772675302007-06-15T08:30:00.000-04:002007-06-15T08:30:00.000-04:00Don't let Jay rant for you big guy...pile it on!
