May we take a moment of your time to introduce Cassandra Willyard? She explained once that the reason she needed to ride around in police cars was to write about why Baltimore was HIV heaven, a logic that’s not immediately obvious. Click on About for more about Cassandra, and then go find her website to see the connection between infectious disease, urban decay, poverty, and the decline of civilization. Somehow she’s still not depressing at all, and we’re delighted she’s around. Her first post will be tomorrow morning.
