Yeah, that's a great method.....

Apparently it was the most reliable "random process", everything else, including using age, is "discrimination." Even a "larger than average" person that occupies 2 seats worth of seats yet purchases only one and you have to sit next to him, calling him "fat" and forcing him to purchase 2 seats is "discrimination." But I agree with you, I personally would be more than happy to go by age and let the elder people in the class get the better seniority.
