Francois, 

	Your reply is much appreciated.  I do not believe that it is a 
tape worm; I have never experienced anything literally "crawling out" of 
my anus.  It is a possibility though.  These are very small, and all 
basically identical in appearance.  It was simply a guess that
it was caused by eating improperly cooked meat.

	I am curious as to what "pinworms" are.  I believe when and if 
Marshall Rice does reply.. we will get closer to what it is.  This is 
definitely interesting, though.  As much as I hate to say that..

			thank you.
