No, back in Singapore (although we certainly could do with one in the physics department here at Cornell). Last I checked, the SDU has about 15,000 participants (Singapore has a population of 3 million). A decade back it was only a few thousand or so. There was a lot of stigma attached to being a member; only recently did the SDU try to revamp its image with a big advertising campaign. I heard it's quite popular now, but it could also be that sexual issues are now less of a taboo topic than it was 10-15 years ago (there was a public lecture on healthy sex recently, this would have been unthinkable in the 1980s). Oh, and the SDU has a fairly glitzy website at http://www.sdu.gov.sg, in case anyone's interested. :-) Eileen
