Tip for selling nude statues

An interesting study in psychology...

The G&L Garden Center of Hartsville, Tennessee sell classical-style nude statues, among other things.  When someone called to complain about the immodesty of the statues, the garden center covered up the offending bits with velvet bikinis.  Now sales have increased, as more people are stopping to check out what's up with the bikini clad statues.  One customer was quoted as saying her husband "wanted to stop when he saw the naked women and the bikinis".

Absolutely.  A clothed female is sooo much better than one naked.

I think Ashcroft started the trend when he decided the Lady Justice needed a makeover.
