And a woman I would run into at various law librarian conventions ( 1989 Reno? 1992 San Francisco) was donating whole blood instead. They did tell me my blood type there. She looked just like a drawing I did of a woman in a magazine that I had given to a special family in Reno, Nevada who said that it reminded them of their recently deceased daughter. And the spitting image of both this lady at Information Access Company (Belmont, CA) and the woman in the drawing who was in a lot of my law school classes. The lawyer is a top immigration attorney in San Francisco.

I still donate blood to impress various blondes and brunettes now as well.
