DH, the most "scandalous" behavior I witnessed were some of the complaints about the quality of the coffee. (Believe me, the coffee deserved every word of it ... someone had left it percolating all night.) These people not only new I was a straight, they new me as a person, and not one of them would have dreamed of making a pass.
Of course, there's also the fact that my wife is known as somewhat posessive. :chuckle: She's a red-head ... and let me tell you, it's NOT false advertizing!

Robin, I've never had a harsh word for you before, but perhaps you should re-think your rather crude comment. These people would no more make love in public than you would with your husband.

I've lost two people to AIDS--one a friend I met after infection, the other a hero I never met, but always admired. You've all heard of Ryan White, and I've no doubt that most of you have heard of Dr. Isaac Asimov. Both were infected by blood transfusion.
If HIV is a judgement against homosexuals--as many of you imply--then God's got some lousy aim.

The Human Imunnodefficiency Virus (which is a retrovirus) is spread when the virus comes in contact with a specific white blood cell called a T-cell. Small numbers of this T-cell are found in the blood and large numbers are found lining the rectum. They seem to be a defense against the types of bacteria that result from digestion of solid material.
HIV can be spread from intravenous drug use, blood transfusions, and any sexual activity. But it has a greater rate of infection amongst those who engage in anal sex, and a those who use intravenous needles. This is because of the greater likelihood of the virus being exposed to a T-Cell.
Interestingly enough there is quite a bit of evidence being compiled that suggests a link between retroviruses and horizontal gene transfer. Research is currently being done to see if this is related to the greater rates of cervical cancer found in women who have HPV and/or herpes.
I'm not quite sure how a direct relationship between "sinful" behavior and diseases caused by retroviruses can be supported.
