I agree with you concerning the whole lawsuit bit as the reason for this bill.

Yet, I've had skin cancer, and have had several relatives die of melanoma. I think it would be easier to put a gun in your mouth & get it over with rather than slowly fry your skin to a crisp.

Tans do look nice, but you only have to see ONE person with melanoma to realize that tans will only age & eventually kill you.
