Sure he's not in high school like most kids that age would be?
I'm trying to get this to add up....
Yeah, I thought that was odd too... but not unheard of.

Brief web search shows the OP is a young entrepreneur who owns an app and business development firm. Congrats to him for being a small business owner. That's tough to do while being enrolled in college.

Being 18, this would likely be his first year of HHonors membership due to the program requiring a member be 18 years old. So congrats to him for getting an early start on LTD status. He'll have it by the time he's 28!

If I were OP, I'd let it die. His most recent post says:

...will be contacting media outlets in the near future.
You had crap service at a rural hotel. If "media outlets" is Trip Advisor, by all means. If you mean local TV and newspapers, I'd let it go. Use your free-night certificate and forget about it.
