It is said that it is x-mitted by homosexuals, but this is just homo. men, correct? Is it known to be a consequence of oral sex, anal sex, or (hold your booties) oro-anal sex? (They don't write about such 'perverted' subjects in the newspapers.) Is it conceivable that the heterosexuals who contracted AIDS did so through some of the afore-mentioned acts? Is there some similarity to the fact that male homosexuals are a high-risk group for infectious hepatitis? As far as the Haitians go, a lot of the recent influx of people from Caribbean countries (including Cuba) have been criminals and homosexuals. (Castro said, "Fine, we'll send you some people. Here, have the dregs of our society. BTW, you've just been hosed.") Let's get whatever hard cold facts are available and then we can at least flame informed. -- Randwulf (Randy Haskins) genrad!mit-eddie!rh or... rh@mit-ee (via mit-mc)
