It sounds like your group of friends did, Mercury, but the whole world didn't do very well at all, to hear the reports. How come so few made the connection or even wore purple for a deliberate statement??? That's a shame. I guess it was the same when the AIDS crisis started and nobody understood what it was about. Let's not forget AIDS remembrance day on December 1st then.
