AIDS Conference

Just wanted to recommend to everyone that's in Cambridge this weekend that you sign-up for the United Against AIDS conference. It's going to be a tremendous event, I know the organizing groups have been working on it for years, and the panels/issues look fascinating. AIDS is one of those things that I think many of us become desensitized to. At a certain point, we just intellectually acknowledge its destruction without really emotionally or morally connecting with those numbers, the deaths and all of those people. Let's try to reengage, see it for the first time and understand out moral imperative.
