The worst part of it is that, they all look tan.The one that did the story was the darkest.

I responded to the story and discussed Dana-Farber. It's wait-and-see to see if they publish it.

The human race would have been extinct LONG TIME AGO if the sun was this bad....yet we VACATION to these places of extreme sun. Wouldn't that be attempted suicide?

The real story should read

IF YOU PLAN ON LIVING A FULL LIFE PLAN ON GETTING ONE OF EVERYTHING AS THE CHANCES ARE GOOD THAT IN 100YEARS SOMETHING MAY HAPPEN.

Also, the anchor said her brother died and stated that as kids they had 2 beach houses and were out in the sun a lot. Did she mention her brother went to a tanning salon.........NO!, so exactly how did he get Melanomia? Not from a tannning bed, but from the OUTSIDE SUN and overexposure! Not to sound cold, but the other side of the story is never told.

Not only is THIS a stretch BUT

Do they live under power lines?
Do they live in an area with high pollution?
DO they eat healthy?

THE SUN DOES NOT CAUSE MELANOMA. THERE IS NO STUDY THAT SAYS THIS. ONLY A STUDY THAT STATES THE OPPOSITE. IF SOMEONE SAYS OTHERWISE, IT'S OPINION.

Don't forget as a child what kind of pollution car did they drive? How did they cook their meals? and and did they live under a new power plant?
