I want to see a study that tracks cancer rates per capita over time. It seems like if there were enough analytics done on cancer you could look for rate jumps and use that as a starting point to an investigation. There is an issue in Carlsbad right now where a bunch of kids have gotten cancer. It is getting a lot of press and a lot of people are trying to say that it has something to do with the Carlsbad soil. But that just seems like a guess. If there were a lot of raw data out there a researcher could compare Carlsbad cancer rate with other locations. He could compare soil contamination rates with other areas too, and if there was a correlation that would be a good starting place for an investigation. If there were other types of correlations, maybe there is a better place for an investigation. The point... I think it would be wise to use some of the Cancer research money in this way to look for patterns that cause cancer. I find it frustrating that will all the money behind cancer research, nobody knows what causes cancer.
