Thanks, Arney, for pointing this out. I had not seen it.

WARNING: SARCASM AHEAD!

There seem to be many people (I work with some) who know CPR, but say they would hesitate to use it on a stranger. And the term "stranger" is defined by someone who doesn't have a dated-today HIV/AIDS blood test result pinned to his/her chest.

And this comes from people who would French-kiss everone of the opposite sex in a large, crowded nightclub if they were given the opportunity.

One guy who said this has recently fathered two children in casual relationships, so he is obviously not using any form of protection for anything. But he wouldn't give a dry-mouth kiss-of-life to any other stranger unless she was young, pretty, blond and had big boobs.

So, if you hesitate to give CPR to someone, stop and think who you're willing to kiss NOW. <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Okay, finished.
