Here is our problem...and, of course, it is a 2-parter!  We have been carrying the original "YOU ARE HERE"  design (Please see ebay listing # 112784039391.) since at least 1995 and it has been among our best sellers the entire time.  (NO, that is not the problem!)  Without ever meeting him face-to-face, the printer is simply one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet.  (No problem yet.)  He is based out of California.  (PROBLEM!)  California is NOT the problem (except when it is on fire!) but the outrageous price increases to have something shipped from there to the east coast (Our own particular problem!) using UPS are the ONLY reason that this shirt is $1.00 more than most of our others...and after seeing the shipping charges from the latest batch, we might next need to raise it even more.  (THAT was problem # 1.)  Next, we have to go back to the 2nd sentence, in particular, that part about "since 1995".  Other than a change of font, this design has not changed.  However, SCIENCE HAS!  We NOW know that our Milky Way Galaxy is NOT a typical spiral galaxy, but is, in fact a BARRED SPIRAL!  (Problem # 2!)  This was confirmed by the first photo released by the top-secret NASA program dubbed "MPSS".  Using carbon-nanotube technology, the "Mega-Parsec Selfie-Stick" has been able to take the first actual photo of our own galaxy from the outside, even as we have been forced to stay on the inside, here on Earth, making this shirt MUCH more accurate.  (Even if most of the previous 2 sentences were total BS, the part about "more accurate" WAS correct.)  Printed by one of our other favorite printers, who lives MUCH closer, we have been able to keep the price in check for this shirt.  We can't decide which design we prefer more or if we should keep both.  So, which do YOU prefer?
