Well, I was just tweaking Wirt and no thanks to the plague.  My wife has had
students from Africa come in and speak to her biology students about AIDS in
Africa.  The stories are appalling.  It is very difficult to break through
some of the strange (to us) beliefs.  The one that boggles my mind is that
having sex with a virgin will cure AIDS.  While money is required, the
challenges are far greater than just getting money.
