RE: getting money up front. Easiest way is to use credit cards, (that is to
accept payment via them). You pay a 3% (approximately) fee, but the money
is automatically in your bank with 2-3 business days and cuts way back on
bounced checks, etc.

thrush environment par excellent!)

Also, therapeutically, they are inappropriate.  Some leaking is protective
