	It is ILLEGAL to be paid for your blood. This has been
effective since the late 1970's.  Many hospitals, non ARC, get
around this somewhat by providing coverage Plans that entitle you
and your immediate family to have all the blood they need provided
free if they need it.  This does not include the cost of the
crossmatch, processing of the unit, etc., for which the patient will
still be charged.

doesn't threaten anyone because you don't look good in it." From
