Juan:

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS or Aids) is a collection of symptoms and infections resulting from the specific damage to the immune system caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in humans,[1] and similar viruses in other species (SIV, FIV, etc.). The late stage of the condition leaves individuals susceptible to opportunistic infections and tumors. Although treatments for AIDS and HIV exist to decelerate the virus's progression, there is currently no known cure. HIV is transmitted through direct contact of a mucous membrane or the bloodstream with a bodily fluid containing HIV, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluid, preseminal fluid, and breast milk.[2][3] This transmission can come in the form of anal, vaginal or oral sex, blood transfusion, contaminated hypodermic needles, exchange between mother and baby during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding, or other exposure to one of the above bodily fluids.

Most researchers believe that HIV originated in sub-Saharan Africa during the twentieth century.[4] It is now a pandemic. In 2007, an estimated 33.2 million people lived with the disease worldwide, and it claimed the lives of an estimated 2.1 million people, including 330,000 children.[5] Over three-fourths of these deaths occurred in sub-Saharan Africa,[5] retarding economic growth and destroying human capital.[6] Antiretroviral treatment reduces both the mortality and the morbidity of HIV infection, but routine access to antiretroviral medication is not available in all countries.[7]

Haha, obviously people are different individually but the Scots have been immortalised as being stingy. Jokes like 'he dropped a 50p and when he went to pick it up it hit him on the back of the head' have helped make that assumption stronger

As far as supply goes we are fine for the moment here. The problem I think you might be referring to is that in Australia the majority of our electricity is generated from coal power plants mainly because we have an abundance of coal available to us. The problem is not created by global warming but in our response to it: in order to reduce emissions, thus fight global warming, we have to work out ways to reduce the effect these power plants have on our carbon footprint whilst also catering for the electricity needs of our nation. Obviously this will involve a massive investment in new forms of electricity production and there is quite strong protest in some circles against the option of nuclear power.

I guess that might be the problem you are talking about

I always got the indication that that the stereotyping often considered Jewish people to be stingy. I obviously do not believe this to be true but I feel that was a fairly constant stereotype in the 20th century

Oh yes, the jewish have this kind of stereotype too, but Scots are one of the stingys too. I mean, ever heard of Donald Ducks Uncle? Scrooge McDuck? Uncle Scrooge? Ring a bell?
