@Curves:
if you're in a bikini,
1) let me know,
2) use SPF 45 sunscreen

@scarbrtj: I actually do go out in the sun. I use SPF90 (or higher) and walk around under an umbrella. This summer, when I was vacationing at the beach, I was the ONLY person laying out to get sun from 8 to 9 a.m.

Many skin cancers are currently treated by a combo of light and drugs (called photodynamic therapy)...

PDT is used to treat many skin conditions, but it is practically NEVER used to treat skin cancer.
