It never ceases to amaze me what individuals with access to the Internet and the means to network with so many around the gobe consider 'important'.

okay, firstly you don't know me very well if you don't think that I think HIV cases are serious. I bet I have done more to help fight HV/AIDS than most people on this board combined.
Secondly, at the time I posted this it was still going on and *I* and a few others on this board live in London. WHen the Washington sniper was shooting people it was all over the board. So, yes I do think it is important when people were being killed in my city.
