Well, I'm not 16 or 17 (I'm 15), but I don't think anyone would mind if I

considering GMLUG or I may even go out on a limb soon and try to generate
interest for a State Of Ohio Lego Users Group. (SOOLUG, anyone?) As for the
below questions, I would be extremely mad if I was not allowed into a group
because of a two or three year age handicap. To me that is almost like racism
or sexism. If a person has shown they are completely capable of being an
active and positive influence on and in the club, then by all means they
should be allowed in. To "discriminate" against someone based on the fact they
aren't as old as anyone else there, but are clearly as, if not more, mature,
just seems stupid to me. To throw some more fuel on this fire, I have to say I
side with Shiri, and not just because I would be in the same situation as she
if I tried to join NELUG.

As a NELUG member, I'd love to hear stories/experiences specificially from 16-17 year olds (or 18-year-olds if you were once 16-17 as part of a LUG) who are members of other LUGs in the U.S....this might help me form a more solid opinion if (...)
