Skin cancer is one of those wierd things, you either get it or not. The risk factors don't seem as cut and dry.

If you've been to a dermatologist's office lately, or plan to go, check out the posters of what ONE session in a tanning booth does to your skin.

And if that's not enough, there's at least four other GreekChatters who have also had skin cancer. The scars can range from a little divot (if caught early) to the loss of an ear - or life. I'm in geriatric counseling - sun exposure WILL catch up with you!!

TANS KILL!!

I don't see how this is going to stop teens from trying to get tan. All they are gonna do is go out in the sun bare-skinned for hours on end. Isn't that worse than 8 minutes in a booth.

I am all for the Mystic Tan. No UV garbage. The only problem is that you become a nice shade of Seacrest-Orange.

I guess beggers can't be chosers.
