"Why today's laptop, cellphone, indoors lifestyle is taking us back into the Middle Ages! Except for us who LIVE with the Sun, daily. We have steering wheels on the right and I had a small, non cancerous melanoma on my left arm. I have no liver spots on my hands and hardly any wrinkles on my face and I am approaching 60. On balance, Sunlight is good for you, I fully concur with this.

I thought I could live like a vampire, work overnight shifts and go to the club all night on weekends. Well, that was fun for the furst few weeks. The night truly is beautiful. But alas, I am a diurnal terrestrial Earthling, and without sunlight I go crazy after awhile. Now I love the sun.

Well, I hope they had run at least one regression because all I am seeing are comparison graphs and drastic causal inference, not mentioning a control or random expriment.

Temperature in Edinburgh is 10-13 degrees c between winter and summer. You must have noticed Spring. What have you got against our tourist industry?

[@ivyviolet272]

my snails liked your talk :)

Great lecture, but the title is a mismatch: effects on sleep and memory aren't its focus.

I'm glad i gave up my well payed office job for a meager salary outdoors .

Northern ireland in the "Hours of bright sunshine" map looks just like a puppy' head : grey ears , white face , there's an eye and to the east its nose . Weird (11:11)

If you don't like the Scots or Scottish independence feel free to never come back. We can bare it.

It's a vit d pun. Not a good one tbh

You must be a Scottish nationalist, you have no sense of humour

What a tough paradox. The Sun is good and terrible for pale skinned types.

[@glynthomas3976]

Ike Diamond No the sun is good for pale skin, darker the skin the more problematic you get

[@swamprat9389]

I'm about as white as you can get and after careful sun exposure I've gotten a wicked tan and dont burn unless I way overdo it on my weakened areas

@@glynthomas3976how dumb do you have to be to believe this? The sun makes melinated people more powerful. Why? Because melanin modulates UV and infrared spectrums via the photoelectric effect. The less melanin, the worse in the sun.

[@julianshepherd2038]

But seriously I need Scottish people to get this information and racist homes form 1975 aren't helping. Also 10/ of Scotland is English born with more than that as the move up for promotion. Few people move without a carrot. Anyway, goodjck with Bojo the Clown V the EU. So long and thanks for all the insults.

[@glynthomas3976]

I don’t think the rest of the UK cares about Scottish independence. The Scottish people don’t seem to have a sense of humour at all
