I needed to listen to that again (3rd time actually!) Many thanks for making it available to the public - finally I am able to share it with my son who is an electro-magnetic bitcoin freak! xx

Here in Oz weve had a sustained government campaign against sunlight for over a generation starting with the "slip slop slap" ads during the 1980's. Most Aussies will mournfully repeat the mantra that we have the highest rate of skin cancers in the world and as such have learnt to fear sun exposure. A "good" parent nowadays will make sure their child has near total body coverage ("slip" on protective clothing), plaster any exposed skin with sunscreen (slop), and are wearing a wide brimmed hat (slap on a hat). It's now standard dress uniform for most Aussie school children. At the very same time our rates of metabolic diseases within the general population have sky rocked along with childhood obesity as indoor activities, out of the sun, are perceived as the safer option.

All above being said, the sun here, even in winter, can render a pale skinned person burnt to blisters in ten minutes. Sun bathers and those who work mainly outdoors have noticeable ageing compared to those with less exposure.

Is there really a sun exposure sweet spot, dependent on haplotype, latitude and elevation as suggested by Dr Kruse? If so, Oz's imported Eurocentric population may be damned to suffer the worst of both worlds.

Most of that was beyond my understanding, though still interesting. I lived in Denmark for 5 years, and they used to say, "Don't mess with the Icelanders, they are the bad Danes that we exiled there!" Dunno if they are extra magnitised.
