...that the thing that bothers me the most about the current popular
reaction to AIDS is this smug, self-important idea that this is a
new thing, that if it wasn't for /this thing/ we could go back to the
way things /ought/ to be, like they were /before/, where dying from
some disease you got while having sex was just /so/ unheard of...you 
know, the "love shouldn't kill" mindset that finds it so utterly
appalling that you can't fuck indiscriminately without fear of anything
worse than an inconvenient trip to the doctor for a shot of penecillin.
For a brief instant it was there, and now that things are back to normal
everyone's reacting like Donald Trump when he found out his credit had
run out..."you simply /can't/ do this to us!" Grr...that bugs me.
But, I think I shall stop ranting now before I /really/ get going...
