<p>In fact, henceforth, I proclaim that the official tome of Barnes-Ville is "Dancing Naked in the Minefield" by Dr. Kary Mullis.</p>

<p>Hank, as you may well have guessed by now, based on my obvious sorely lacking medical knowledge - you have hit on my primary concern in all of this.</p>
<p>Look, if HIV causes AIDS, that's ok with me! Glad you folks figured it out and can give some hope to a lot of suffering people! But there are so many current anomalies and you have a great mind, like Duesberg, who has a different way of seeing what's going on. Maybe he's completely wrong. THAT'S OK! Give him his full run, let him explore whatever aspects of this disease that he finds 'curious', fund his work, join him in it, stop reducing his fine career to rubble, etc.</p>
<p>The fact that this goes on as it does can only make an unknowledgeable outsider like myself WONDER - what the "F" is really happening here?</p>Hank commented on 'Dr. Tara Smith is Talking Sense'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451609269e200e55077705888342006-03-30T01:09:45Z2008-02-22T08:50:52ZHank John, Yeah, the funny thing is that Duesberg may be off on a couple of matters.

<p>Yeah, the funny thing is that Duesberg may be off on a couple of matters. For example, it's still unclear what the presence of anti-bodies means in a person, particularly an asymptomatic person.</p>
<p>Does it mean, all is well, and the virus is neutralized? or</p>
<p>Does it mean, your body's immune system has been overstimulated by various foreign microbes/toxins?</p>

I'm kind of surprised that Doc Smith would have said it quite the way she did. You don't need to quote mine, taken in full context it could get her in trouble with some people and you have to give her props for that.</p>
<p>Also, agree about the sycophants over there. We don't need to name names, because it's quite clear and we both know who they are (all though I know you have taken a lot more abuse from them than I. Probably only because I don't spend much time there). </p>
<p>What STRIKES ME about them is that they are supposedly interested in science, but are so close-minded. Duesberg is a brilliant man - far more brilliant than any of them or any of us. He knows the science that we are squabbling over. How can you make a pariah out of a guy like that, just because he has a contrarian viewpoint? Why would you not embrace his challenges, encourage his work, join him in it? It's beyond me.<br />
