	Worldwide, there is one soldier for every 28 people.  There is only
one doctor for every 1050. Put another way, there are almost 40 times as many
soldiers in this world as doctors.

	Item: Last week, during a routine training exercise two F-16 fighters
collided in mid-air. In addition to the loss of two pilots, both planes were
destroyed.  The replacement cost of those two planes was equal to the entire
1985 budget for AIDS research (approximately $140,000,000).
