As first reported by our own Jellio, the weather is getting nicer. That's good news for everyone, unless you're a pasty teen in Maryland. Some Maryland school districts classify sunscreen as a "controlled substance," which requires a doctor's note.

From ZeroIntelligence.net: "If you had a very young kid, and they put it in their eyes, it could hurt them," said Judith Covich, Montgomery County's director of health and student services.

But help is on the way. Maryland legislators are getting involved, pushing a bill that would require schools to grant all kids sunscreen access. Because what this situation needs is more laws.
