If this is true, we should be able to go back to the early part of the
1900'2. when wemon smoked less, and match the breast cancer rates to the
solar cycles, once we have acounted for all of the other modifying factors

John Jacobus recently posted the address of a site:

http://www.nci.nih.gov/atlas/

that allows you to create "cancer maps" of the US.  They can be created
at
the state level or at the county level for all cancers or individual
cancers
(male or female).  Both the state and county maps I created showed low
cancer morality in states and counties (generally) at higher altitudes.
The
cancer induction due to the carbon 14 may be overwhelmed by the hormetic
effects of the overall cosmic radiation even though the total dose is
less
than optimum.
