...world's oldest profession isn't about to take the recession lying down. Brothels and bathhouses have launched promotions - including free shuttle buses and senior-citizen discounts - in a bid to arouse interest among wary spenders. As part of a new deal at Yes Sir! in Hanover, Germany, customers pay $111 to have as much sex as they want (or can) for one hour.
