not connected. The overall ratings took those things in consideration. I 
never saw Philly people smoking more then average that would warrant all 
those negative correlations. What I did just find out is that people who get 
asthma and took depression meds now have to worry about being depressed. 
because they say an asthma med causes depression. I agree but I think its 
the realistic cicrumstances that causes depression not the meds.
