Having to be 18 to go to trade shows (Score 1)

Well I agree that this is the most stupid thing. I have so say not been allowed to go to trade shows since I was 15. I have been involved in many parts of the industry from being a reseller to a contractor and I feel insulted that I would be disciminated for being too young and having the ordasity to get involved with the brainy old people. I am now 19 and can now get in without having to pretend to be over 18, ooo the privileges. Is it as bad for your health as smoking (age 16 in the uk), okay I take that back the stress will probably kill you before the cigarette. It still seems they don't want our business and therefore our money. Do they not think that if we have made it in the industry by our age that maybe our little brains can cope with the ooo complicated stuff probably better than they can.
