I read somewhere that the version of Herpes that causes mouth sores (probably Herpes Simplex 3.5.1024) is nearly universal by the age of 40 or 50. Speaking for myself, I've had periodic mouth cold sores (which is, I think, this version of herpes being symptomatic) since before the first time I had sex of any kind.

I think worse than cold sores, the fact that I call it a "version" says way too much about my geekiness.

PS... Lee, if you listened carefully to their story, it was 25% of SEXUALLY ACTIVE teens. They were kind of downplaying that, and I'm not sure what ratio of the general population that translates to, but was a bit disingenuous if you ask me. Though even with that stipulation it's a big number.
