2018 Year
I can't believe it has been 18 years since everyone was freaking out how the computers were going to shut everything down, because the years was only set up as 2 digits, and the financial system was going to crash etc. Wow, I am getting old!

How has HIV been a POSITVE experience in your life?
I always see how people write how HIV is bad. I always seem to see the negative side, and people talking about the negative things about HIV. Yes usually the negative outweighs the positive, but how has HIV affected you in a positive way?
