What was the weather like in Seattle on Sunday, Sept 6, 1970? One could safely assume it rained—and indeed, it rained 9 mm and the temperature was a moderate 15°C. Finally, how many people died of HIV/AIDS in 2007? Even though HIV has captivated public discourse and funding, including over $5·1 billion in development assistance for health in 2007 alone, there are only rough estimates of its disease burden.
