We can only eat so much Bratwurst, however ALL of us DO eat -- every single day, several times per day.

Tanners are about 10% of the population - and dropping. Anti-tan sentiment is the strongest it ever has been! We were in Florida last month and my 9 year old was looking a little pink on her shoulders after hours in the pool. I sent her to go put on more sunscreen, noting the pinkness. She looked right at me and said, "Mommy, am I going to die?". I was shocked! You can bet she never got that idea from me, but at age 9, here's what she thinks about sun exposure!

Not trying to "scare off competition" (as you suggested I was doing in another post! :) ), just hate to see people come in thinking it is easy and a gold mine and not realize that those "glory days" are long past, and while there is still money to be made, it is a LOT tougher and you have to be a LOT smarter and well capitalized than you ever did before in most markets.
