Something to do with all the injections we got, such as Black Plague and Anthrax.  Also the nerve agent antidote pyridostigmine (NAPS) bromide tablets that we had to take.

Basically they can't work out if there is a Gulf War syndrome so as a precautionary measure we can't give blood. 

What about you guys on the ground?  Do you have any restrictions?

I received the full series of anthrax vaccos
So does that mean you can't give blood either?  Or is it just an Australian thing?

As far as I remember, they said you couldnt give blood while you are receiving the series and then a year after the last shot.

Never have; I'm 15, minimum age in Finland is 18. Unless I get paid, I don't think I'm gonna, I hate that feeling of something sucking out your blood (Had a couple of blood samples... Ughhhh)
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

I selected: "I have not donated blood, but plan to in the future," when they develop another method that doesn't involve shoving a fat needle in your arm *shudders at thought of needles*

if your doctor isn't a fucking idiot then it's not bad at all. Feels awkward but it isn't painful unless the retard misses, and even then there are more painful things.

Nope, hate needles.  But I might, never know.

In U.S. you have to be 17 (or 16, depends on state)
I know in CA you can be, I believe, 16 but you need a parents permission to do so.

I donate blood on a regular basis. My employer coordinates with the American Red Cross to have a bus come to my work every 56 days for donations. I've donated blood since I was 17. A few months ago, the Red Cross called me say that I had a high platelet count & they were looking for donors for platelets. I haven't donated platelets yet as I want to talk to someon e who's done the process before I take that step.

I doubt it. If you put it the same way as the original poster (just mention you've done it before and you wanna know how many others have), I bet the thread would have the same amount of responses. No one's holding your previous post today against you. (at least I'm not)

Reason why I couldn't donate blood in the military. Told the sergeants I did anyway, so I didn't have to do anything for the rest of the day.
