1) Most modern cancers, 80+%, arise from somatic gene mutations. 家族遗传(germline genetics) has nothing to do with these cancers. So for the lay person, what does it mean by "somatic GENE mutations"? It means your environment, your food, your life style and your work stress - they cause cancer, not the GENES from your mom and dad;

2) 1971, Nixon declared war on cancer. Money went, cure will come, life will be good all over again.
Therefore, if we can cure cancers, no matter how terrible we humans are causing cancers, it does not matter any more. Just imagine how excited America's chemical industries executives were when they heard about this.

Yes, half of this is true. We humans are causing more and more cancers - our environment (PCBs, dioxins, for example), our food (rGBH, aspartame), our home (formaldehyde furniture, teflon cooking pans), our short-sighted medical interventions (estrogen, ritalin), plus our rerentless pursuit for earthly happiness, have doubled, tripled, quadrupled, or multipled many cancers, and many used-to-be rare cancers, are not rare any more, e.g., brain cancer, or non-smoker lung cancer.
