What a cool (in more ways than one) idea!
From No More Mister Nice Blog:
(...) let's all go to the Bible Belt and find liberal kids who are over 20 years and 3 months old, but under 21. Let's buy beers and sell them to the kids on the steps of police stations -- and when we get arrested, let's say that the kids are really 21 because, hey, life begins at conception, doesn't it? As every God-fearing Christian knows?

1. What??? Even if LIFE began at conception, ADULTHOOD didn't.
..and you must be a legal adult to drink alcohol.

Silly rule, maybe, but your solution really doesn't make sense.

3. but if life begins at conception, adulthood begins 9 months earlier
I always wanted to try that when I was 20, but didn't have the guts or the money to travel from Minnesota to Louisiana.

4. O.K., I get it, but I believe the generally accepted date for the "start"
is your birthday. Cute idea (cuter, now that I understand it) but still pretty damned unworkable unless you rewrite the laws...
