Hence due to the water you drink. But that's me remembering a radio story I heard while trying to corral my three toddlers, so who knows if I'm putting the fragments together correctly!

I suppose it would also be possible to detect the city you live in, by checking levels of pollutants in your hair -- similar to determining the level of arsenic/heavy elements in your hair. The part about blonde-spotting making one stupid is just plain silly, however.
