Absolutely incorrect.  This is not the basis for my arguments about
HIV and AIDS.  You brought up the "explanation" for "enhancing
antibodies" and I simply discredited the inference that they might
have some relevance in the issue.

Not medics, physcians, pathologist(also physicians), dentists, nurses
in AIDS education, laboratory technicians in the HIV testing
arena(shall I go on?)

Oh, excuse me, I thought AIDS was an "epidemic".  Nothing rare about
an epidemic, is there?

You obviously don't know me and cannot draw a conclusion like that
with any basis in credulity because to do so would indict the very
individuals who don't know what the hell you were talking about,
haven't read it, can't find it, and therefore seriously doubt any
chance of it being valid but DO believe that HIV is the cause of AIDS
and are continuing with their treatment of HIV and PWA based upon
trust in junk science like this that they ABSOLUTELY  DO NOT HAVE TIME
OR INTEREST TO RESEARCH THEMSELVES!

This newsgroup is replete with ad hominem attacks against me, Todd
Miller and anyone presenting an AIDS dissident view, so don't be a
hypocrite like the other knotheads on the group sharing your mindset.

Ask Peter Duesberg, who obviously doesn't need to go to the library to
take all of you on, anywhere, anytime if he can have an "open" debate,
free of "ad hominem" attacks.  You guys beat everything(to quote
Sheriff Andy Taylor).

Excuse me, did it appear as though I was trying to have a meaningful
discussion with you?  I'm sorry, I had no such plan.

Define untold.  You mean censorship?  You mean more ad hominem
