Jonas Salk works on AIDS, U-T vs. the Padres, a libertarian answer for Yellow Cab
People whose kidneys have failed to function must undergo dislysis several times a week or they will die.
Pumping ire

Clarence "Joe" Gibbs. "Joe, I have a putative vaccine," said Salk. "For what?" asked Gibbs. "HIV" "It's not recombinant, I hope,” said Gibbs,
They are working on a cure for Aids
AIDS-vaccine researchers viewed Salk as a Johnny-come-lately to the AIDS field. "When Jonas showed up at (1987's Third International Conference on AIDS in Washington, D.C.) and presented his ideas, he was laughed out of the conference," says Dr. Brandon Fradd.

Terry Sheldon is relentless in his refusal to look at things from his opponents’ viewpoint.
Terry Sheldon doesn't take no for an answer
When the environmentalists paint him as the big, rich developer, Sheldon says he’s the little guy, not they. “I’m by myself,” he says. In fact, he’s the environmentalist, he maintains. The “pseudo-environmentalists” who oppose him are “not concerned with the environment. They’re concerned with their own political egos and their political motivations and their own power structures.”
