    I do not think that binge drinking has anything to do with the drinking age, but rather with many other ills in our culture - too much stress/pressure, lack of family time (and not driving from one activiity to another, but rather real, quality time), bad examples set by adults using alcohol and media examples of poor choices with positive rewards to the characters or stars, etc... How about college's doing more to provide non-alcohol events - starting with "tailgating". If that shocks you then I would say that is EXACTLY what I mean about this being a cultural problem!
