Smart people are not at risk.
They’re worried about their funding drying up.
I think that's the big issue right there. Funding is on the line, just like with AGW.

Precisely. Now that the Republicans are in the minority (which hopefully means they start behaving like conservatives again) they should start demanding a full-scale congressional investigation into the AIDS scandal. Can you imagine how the AIDS establishment will look when the America people find out that AIDS only accounts for 3.7 percent of worldwide mortality, but receives 25% of ALL WORLD HEALTH CARE AID!!! Sooner or later, heads are going to roll. I’d prefer that it be sooner!
