There's an e-mail floating around that I just got today that says warns about sitting on needles. It gives the story of a person sitting down in a movie theater and feeling a little poke on her butt. There was a needle in the seat with a note attached saying "you now have HIV". The e-mail also says that the CDC has reported several similar occurences around the nation.
There's also a name and phone number in the post for the coordinator at the Women's Research Center at Virginia Tech. I called the number and the message on the voice mail said that it is a hoax. The person's name in the e-mail is also wrong. That person is no longer there and there's a new coordinator. Sounds like someone got a little angry at V-Tech or something. So, don't freak out, all.
