It sure has; suburbanites frequently drive an hour each way to stand in a 20-min. line in front of Bob's and pay 950 for a cone and $3.75 for a quart of apple-peanut butter, banana mango or mocha almond. People buy Bob's Kahlua for $17 per gal., and some have spent $40 to airfreight it across the country. Owner Bob Weiss, 35, a lawyer who tired of the profession when he followed his lawyer-wife to Washington, started the shop three years...

Dozens of children lay sprawled on the cool terrazzo floor of the two-story mansion, while one mother nursed her newborn baby, aptly named Peru.
