Your wild idea that they > could accurately include data on any other class is hilarious. *You* are the one who ignored bisexuals and attributed all the cases to homosexuals. I mentioned a few other ones as well, and the CDC includes all of them - that's why they changed the term to "male-to-male sexual contact". >>As I said, there is really no reason for you to lie about it (your >>70% BTW, required some round-up with worst-case assumptions). > > That's not my figure that's the CDC figure -- do you think they lie > about homosexuals? No, I think you lie - you made up that 70 percent thing and the CDC data simply is not consistent with it - the actual numbers are lower. >>Why not just admit what the actual numbers are? That isn't asking >>a lot from you. > > Why not accept the data from the CDC rather than continue to blow > smoke up your own ass. Why do you lie so much?
