NET-MAIL, Sacramento CA Lines: 14 Approved: wtm@bunker.UUCP Index Number: 8990 I am not sure what the regulations are in the United States, but I think if you have been tested and you don't show positive you can give blood here. I understand your feelings though. If you think about it, almost everyone that gives blood could have contracted aids in one way or another. Before I gave blood the firts time, I was sexually active with women and could have had aids. They took my blood anyway. Well, take care and I wish you success in fighting this ignorance. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!203!11!Greg.Mason Internet: Greg.Mason@f11.n203.z1.fidonet.org
