I had to tell an adolescent today that the HIV screening test we do on all 18 year olds was positive.

My Romanian friend just shared her personal story of living in Romania during the fall of Ceausescu, her sister's imprisonment for 3 weeks (she has never told what she experienced), and her own temporary detention, her mother's fears.

We also learned from her what it was like for her family to live under Ceausescu. Very interesting!

We're not to the Ceaucescu level here in the US yet. As bad as things are, we're not there. I hope we can avoid it...

The Zuck doesn't like seeing that level of creativity coming from anyone but himself.
