I am truly sorry for anyone I offended this way.

The point I wanted to make was:  Don't give up something good because of fear.
			You *can* protect yourself from both.

I did not say *promiscous* sex.

P.S.	I hope all this talk of viri (is that the plural) hasn't convinced
	anyone to give it a shot.  I know many people who would do it if they
	could, luckly they are the best programmers.

P.P.S.	I first heard of Cancer DOS (A DOS 3.3 that copied itself onto all
	"catalog"ed disks.) around five years ago.
