Discoveries using the telescopes on Mauna Kea

[Tink]

So, we are back to that darned parking lot again. I do not know, or really care if it is legitimate or not, but how about this scenario where it is YOU ( in general, not Obie) starting a business. Do you have a business idea and go straight down and plunk what little you have in start up investment in numerous fees and permits, emptying your wallet with no promise on a return, or do you have a business venture wherein you start by word of mouth, see if there is enough business to actually validate the County fees and licensing, while using your own insurance that has "blanket coverage" as long as you are the one working?
It's your call on this one...
