FYI To Ask Don's Platoon:

It's time to "throw in the towel" (for real this time!) and cancel my talk in Nashville.

We have had only one (1) registrant so far and that fact of life clearly indicates that there is not a huge clamor among the masses (the understatement of the year! - of ANY year for that matter! - LOL) to hear what I have to say.

Instead, I will post the material I intended to present on the "TanTalk e-Magazine" forum and those few of you who are interested in reading my comments can view and copy this information at your leisure.

I have informed Christine that I will reimburse her for all of the "out of pocket" costs she has incurred. However, I cannot do other than to say "thank you" for all of the time she and Mitzi and Shari have spent trying to organize this event.

The check we have received to date will be sent back today and, should we receive any more checks, they will be promptly returned.

"You see, of course,
- if you are not a dunce.

How it went to peices,
- all at once.

All at once,
- and nothing first.

Just as bubbles do,
- when they burst!"

Sorry to hear that. Makes one wonder how that giant room filled up in Chicago 2000 to hear your presentations. What changed between then and now is anybody's guess.

Steve:

The fact of the matter is that most people just aren't interested in hearing about the "science of tanning" and about the regulatory changes that are hovering just below their radar screen.

But when the reality of (1) annual dose limits, (2) irradiance caps, (3) lower initial session dose, etc., etc., hits, perhaps that apathetic attitude will, of necessity, change.

Don't forget that there have been only 5 salon owners who have attended the last three FDA meetings.

That's why I have changed the name from "Ask Don's Army" to "Ask Don's Platoon" - LOL.

As for me, I'll keep doing my best to "head off" these onerous regulatory changes.
