I bet the chances of a Californian getting skin cancer (or, as I call it, "sun cancer") are much greater than for a Pennsylvanian.

Well, we did a bit better by moving to Charlotte, but not much. It's rated at 112, whereas Indy is at 116. Every little bit helps I suppose.
It's an orange ozone day again today, so we're not a good place to be right now.

Great. I'm really surprised Columbus didn't make the list, although we're right between two of the worst. The air here is gray most days lately.
Cheryl - I believe that Botox paralyzes the facial muscles and as a result all of the surface tension is eliminated, removing the wrinkles. People have Botoxc parties here.
(It scares the crap out of me; I'd rather have a laugh line than a ton of poison in my face!!).

Exactly!!! Every so often, I'll run across some woman with a mega-tan, wearing half of Bailey, Banks, and Biddle around her neck/arms/hands, hair coiffed higher than a 60's housewife on Milltown, face entirely devoid of wrinkles and facial expression. You could yell "Honey! Your hair's on fire, and your daughter is dating the gardener's son!" and that would illicit not so much as a facial twitch.

No way! In Ohio????? I thought only the good folks of Southern California tortured themselves so! My stereotype is wrong! Oh the horror!
