In fact, I saw some stats (not sure where) that said that the percentages of deaths among young drivers went up after they raised the drinking age here (Massachusetts) from 18 to 20. The probable cause: younger kids couldn't get into bars, so they got liquor (somehow) and went out driving around drinking. Sort of like prohibition, ain't it? --Randy rh@mit-eddie
