The Snip that Saves a Life?

From the "where the hell did that come from" department, we have the announcement that circumcision somehow provides substantial protection against AIDS. Substantial protection even, something like 50%. Apparently the evidence was so striking the experimenters called it off early and told their "control" group about the results.

Just when you thought medical science couldn't get any weirder...

I guess it's all about less "mucous membrane" geography on those of us who have "been to the pencil sharpener" when we were babies...fewer places for the nasty AIDS virus to take up residence...
