Be warned about the dangers of tanning | Skin cancer

I cannot tell you how sad this article makes me sad (burn opinion: Gen Z and the terrifying rise of the extreme tan, August 6). The bleeding and extreme tan cause skin cancer. My son, 23, discovered a mole on his back. He took a little persuasion to go to his general practitioner. Seemed quite simple: cut it, end. The mole has become more moles, more operations. He then became his arms, then his lungs, then two brain tumors. Two years of his diagnosis, he died. I would plead with people to avoid bleeding, tanning without sunscreen and complacency. I will never overcome the death of my son.

It is indeed regrettable that art new has long been neglected in France for a long time (editorial, August 8), but the city of Nancy is an exceptional exception. The furniture, glass and other works by Emile Gallé, Louis Majorelle and others are richly represented in the Nancy school museum. The Museum of Fine Arts in Nancy has large collections, and the Villa Majorelle, the former designer’s house, is devoted to his work. An essential destination for enthusiasts.

The interesting article by Gaby Hinsliff on a future of artificial intelligence can be usefully extended to historical studies. Finally, we will be able to read the sides of Gengis and Attila in history (when a journalist uses AI to interview a dead child, is it not time to ask what the limits should be?, August 8).

The letter from Dr. Nick Williams (August 6), saying that he uses planes rather than trains because the latter were not reliable, appeared on the same day that you reported that the flights had been suspended at Birmingham Airport, affecting thousands.

I went to the Millet exhibition Thursday, and of course the Sawyers do not cut a giant penis (letters, August 6). It is clearly a very large salami.

A clear case of apartheight (the Blackadder star, Tony Robinson, awakens anger at the “Hondrism”, August 7).
