If 30 is the new 20 and 40 is the new 30 lets move the drinking age to 31

I'm not being serious of course, but very little good will come from lowering it to 18 or whatever, and having seen cars in 40 feet of water in a Quarry that were mostly from drunk drivers in the teens back when the drinking age was 18 in Wisconsin, I don't feel to bad for kids who want to drink and can't legally.

My parents always said I could drink at home if I wanted as a teen and I never took them up on it. First it didn't taste that good, and the concept of doing it with my parents didn't appeal to me. Drinking for me is a social activity with your peers, and quite frankly I had no desire to get drunk with my parents and I had no use for drinking beyond that. Still don't.
