My game shop just doesn't want to be associated with UA.  It's got a stigma 
that some people think is cool, but old timers fear could cause another 
mazes and monsters thing.

The owner of the FLGS told me that the public area for running games would 
not be allowed for UA because he didn't want to scare away families.

I tried to do a d20 type thing in the UA vein and they all told me that it 
made them feel creepy, and they didn't wanna try it ever again.

The ads in comics would be the best thing if it was economically viable.  UA 
could seriously appeal to readers of TransMet and Invisibles et al.
