Seconded!  If J Scutero - proponent of 
misc.health.aids.anti-HHV.propaganda - would actually develop a 
thesis rather than simply quoting wildly from papers, it might be 
more interesting and more enlightening.  All he has done now is show 
he can use a paper/bibliographic retrieval system.  I fhe really 
doesn't like a herpesvirus as possible cause of KS, let him explain 
why without the leaps of faith he normally indulges in to "prove" 
a point.
