Ohio Convenience Store Plays Classical Music To
Curtail Loitering  The eternal dilemma for convenience store
managers is how to rid the store of undesirable, customer-
intimidating loiterers and panhandlers. Someone at a shop in
Ohio may have figured out the secret: Play music that repels the
unwanted wallflowers.  WBNS Ohio reports customers say that
since the store started blasting classical music, the amount of
loiterers has drastically fallen off.  Says one shopper: “I’d
rather listen to the music than have everybody out here.”  What
sort of music do you think would repel loiterers from other
places, such as, say, shopping malls or coffee shops?  Ohio
