Do you tan?

Tanning in moderation can absolutely have beneficial health effects.

As long as it's from the natural sun rays.

More like this, but hair somewhat darker.

I will need to see the scarred arms to verify that.

False.

Youre apparently unaware of UV Therapy used in the medical profession.

I have read about it. It's helpful in areas where there is lack of natural sun for months on end. There is evidence that Sunbeds increase the chances of skin cancer . Otherwise they wouldn't be making it impossible to obtain new parts here in Australia.

The sun and UV rays are the main causes of premature ageing. I tan easily but prefer to wear factor 50 sunblock if I'm out in the sun.

Yes most of premature aging is caused from uv rays. We do need vitamin D though

Doing my last year MSc in advanced topics in mathematics in a country with little to no sun. I need all the vitamin D (no homo) I can get.

Absolutely.

Guaranteed 90% of your peers are deficient.

One of the hottest chicks I've ever known was ghost-white, tall with long legs and skinny and gigantic hooters.

mmm.... that may mean that melanomas are not sun dependant. 
You can get skin cancer regardless of the sun.

Being a two time intense melanoma surgery patient I have read a lot on this. Many think that the cancer can travel from the injury location and bloom in another place...bottom of feet, gums and anus. Where the sun don't shine. Melanomas can also travel to the bowel and lung. And yes, tanning beds are BAD. I owned one at the time of my first lesion. Doc told me that he sees a lot of melanoma on Hispanic men who work out doors WITHOUT their traditional large hats and Hispanic women who tan....something not done in their past culture.

I think you're accurate in that assumption, very high rates of depression within the field of physics/math. Might be part vitamin D3 deficiency and part the obsession that comes naturally with the subjects.
