I was wondering why I was coughing blood all the time. How does the EPA contribute the cancer solely to air? how about free radicals from all the chemicals in the food and water? not to mention all the electrical, cellular and radiowaves that new york permeates all day? this study is garbage.

1999?? New York has had very aggressive emissions control measures and strict auto laws in place. That data is practically prehistoric. I would think me might have a chance at beating Cali at least.

The places with the best air are like South Dakota and Montana which are not as nice or conveniently located to the city as say as New Jersey or Connecticut. Oh, the link to the EPA needs to be fixed.
