I had a mole on my chest that started getting discolored after a bad sunburn. Went and got it checked out, yep, basal cell skin cancer. They chopped that sucker right out and no issues afterwards. As the OP said, get those things checked out regularly.

Default best bet

Your best bet is to have all the suspicious ones hacked out, and then move promply to Juneau. You'll never have to worry about getting a sunburn again unless you vacation out of town.

There is referring to the polar bear issue since I can't say anything. I use to be a drafter in civil and geotechnical engineering. I worked in Alaska. One of the main projects I had to work on was not only oil piping, but also moving bush pilot runways from spits of land in the water to more inland areas from Barrow down south. You claim that global warming is not an issue, but if it is not then why this kind of work? Why does Alaska loose 50' feet of land every year to water? As far as the position with polar bears, they aren't known to eat during the summer when the ice shelf in the north has melted. They eat in the winter when the ice shelf has formed. That is something you can read anywhere. They are known for stalking humans if they are hungery enough. Why would Barrow have a channel dedicated to bus stops so that you can check to see not only where the bus is, but also to check your particular bus stop to see if it is safe? Just some general questions. The projects I've worked on are fact. The lose of land each year to water is also fact. How can you actually dispute that? I'm not saying don't protect yourself. Animals will evolve as we do always, but there does seem to be a problem is all I'm suggesting that can't be ignored.
