	As Knox points out; some like the idea of AVV's, and some don't.
Unlike Knox, I do believe that this discussion has had merit and
people have changed their minds.  I have received e-mail indicating
this.  I just hope that more people don't like the idea now than before,
and that less people like the idea of AVV's now than before.
	Knox also points out that we may be seeing vaccines turning up.
I believe that we, society, morally and legally, should be prepared
to treat the authors of vaccines as authors of viruses are.  Admittedly
that is not too harsh, but perhaps that will change in the future.
