the article mentions a lot of people being diagnosed aren't fatties. It's gotta be something environmental.

Laptop computers.

Laptops receive a wireless Internet signal that projects small amounts of radiation toward the abdomen in the process. Over time, radiation exposure is very well documented as causing cancer.

Also, restricted blood vessels have been known to cause cancer (for example, women who wear bras have a much higher breast cancer rate than women who don't wear bras). As far as laptops go, some heavier laptops weigh enough that they can cut a little bit of circulation on the abdomen temporarily. Not a big deal short term, but longer term use can obviously build up.
