You rarely get AIDS from a "real person of the opposite
gender" which is why GAY means "got aids yet."

This does not include the use of IV drugs, the other big
vector.

Good lord, how freakin off topic can this get. Politics, religion and
miscellaneous hatred shouldn't be a part of aviation, can't we all just
get along.

If you look at the MovieTone news reels from the 1950's, the
UN WHO was in Africa inoculating entire villages with one
needle and a gallon bottle of serum. The stopped many
deaths and diseases and also probably spread AIDS to whole
populations.

For those of us born before 1950, we remember that disease
kills.

Many diseases are spread by airplanes, traveling faster than
an incubation period to all corners of the world.

But do you want to stake your life on it? Because, well, that's *exactly*
what you're doing...

I have zero actual experience with AIDS, having left the
"open market" a long long time ago.

When I was in the Navy, it was the "good ol' days" (i.e. anything that you
could possibly catch was curable by penicillin)... Well, that's not
completely true since herpes had come around before I left, but it didn't
kill you, it just made you *wish* you were dead... sick-grin

These days, I doubt that it would be as fun to be single and in the
Navy... Something about having to wear steel-belted radial body condoms
just seems like it would take the fun out of meeting strange women waking
up in bed with even *stranger* women... I alway thought it was interesting
how you could go to bed with a really nice looking woman that you
encounter at the bar and wake up with something that albeit female, you
had to wonder if it walked upright...

The formula is ...
good looking= blood alcohol level times the number of hours
since your last full nights' sleep times the number of days
since you were last laid, divided by the months since your
last VD movie.
