Their rather pathetic instance of using an internet rumor as primary 
source for a written piece is reminiscent of the Shlessinger fellow 
(former White House Press Secretary) who quoted a web sight as proof that 
TWA flight 800 was in fact shot down by a missle.  What is so funny is 
that even the original posts mention the runor status of the information. 
 Someone should remind them about the saying which suggests not beliving 
half of what you see or any part of what you read...
