#1 Heroin addiction is odd for a fundementalist Islamic regime. I remember taking a tour to Cairo in 1987 during which the woman tour-guide paointed out that there is no AIDS problem in Muslim countries because of Islam. I would have expected much lowere levels.

#2 And what will you hear from the mullahs/ayatollahs/imams, or whatever the he** you call them?

Impossible. We do not have sex outside of marriage and we do not do drugs; we seek guidance and comfort in the Quran.

How depressing. When are people going to learn that not talking about something is not the same as something not existing. Misery and premature death caused by embarrassment and social stigma...stupid.

#3 AIDS will have a huge impact on Russia, China, Africa and eventually, the ME.... the new plague

#4 Sad but true, this is a Mose Allison Moment (from one of his songs):

What do you do after you ruin your life?
Where do you go?
Who do you know?
What do you do after you've blown the game?
