People seem to take Urban Myths and turn them into reality......Ive found time and time again that it doesnt matter if you state facts and figures people would still want the rubbish and to not change any view!

ok herein lies the problem, people make jokey comments about issues which are serious and DO effect people..... kronie started it as a serious thread and some people completely turned it round.....
maybe aids did originate from monkies, and i am not going to comment on the way this was transefered to humans, i don't know and i dont care....
maybe i should lighten up (as i am sure some people will tell me to do) however i think AIDS is a serious issue and think it is insensitive to make light of it........
i am not saying it is the case, but we do not know every member of this forum personally, and someone on here may have HIV..imagine how they would feel to read this........
yeah it is jokey to talk about the origins but as russ has said lets try and keep this serious (if we can)
