Chip,

Thanks for the information. We checked into using Orasure and were told that we could not perform the tests ourselves on location. I understand their reasoning behind this due to training and counseling issues.

We do have two Lab Corp locations in Palm Springs. I was not aware that Lab Corp offered Orasure testing. I will call them tomorrow and find out. I do know however, that if blood is drawn, the Lab Corp locations here in Palm Springs send the draw off LA, the results of which normally take two to three days.

Again, thanks for the info.

And Patty, thank you for your information as well. Not sure if Pink Visual uses condoms or not. My viewing of straight films is, needless to say, pretty darn limited, but the majority of the ones I've seen don't feature condoms and most of the folk on that side of the industry that I've talked with tell me the either don't use condoms or they let the individual model make his/her own decision.

In any event, their is definitely a double standard between the straight and gay industry where condom use is concerned and I've never heard the term "bareback" used when referring to a straight film without condoms.

Thanks,

Bill
