I do agree that any sun exposure is likely to do more damage then good. Still I would rather burn a bit at home then any on vacation. That is what expericane has given me. I went to California one year without thinking twice about it. Burnt the first day on the beach. Hurt for the next 3-4 days. Now I COULD use spf 30, although I think the wifey brings spf 20, but when I leave PDC I would like to look like I left a sunny place and not Alaska. Like I said I don't really leave brown but I do have some better color. This is all very shallow of course but that is what it comes down to. And I would agree that using the tanning beds on any sort of regular basis is to be avoided, but then so is sitting around drunk in the blistering sun.
