indeed, but now everyone is going crazy about health and stuff, the meaning of a tan might be changing soon. (i'm so healthy, i stay out of the sun and i won't get skin cancer!)
although i don't really think it will change that soon, if you read any women's magazine, they all state stuff like 'oh a tan is so pretty, but too much sun is so bad... use selftanner!'
so i guess the amount of orange people will just rise.
