Such a fantastic analysis. I had to look into Glasgow, and found an article called "Understanding the Glasgow Effect": http://www.sphsu.mrc.ac.uk/research-programmes/mh/hsco/glase... which attributes higher rates for several cancers in Glasgow to binge drinking and a lack of exercise. Hm. Maybe these actually used the same data source. I don't know if I buy that booze and sloth are the only factors.
