This will be highly interesting. I bet the data will show nothing of the
sort. Having spent most of my early life on Jersey, I think I can safely say
that the biggest influence on the islander's health are the usual culprits of
sugar, fried potatoes, pizza, etc., etc. He will never be able to single out
