I received that list sometime ago in an email from my brother who resided on Key Biscayne for many years. The first native Floridians I ever met were at Ft. Jackson in January of 1965. They both were about 20 old Caucasians and had enviable deep dark tans (in January!) that looked permanent, like I had never seen before in my life! One was a water skier at Cypress Gardens. He was even tanned between his toes. I have met several since and I can truthfully say I have liked every one of them.
