Excellent point, Matt. But I'd go one step further. The same
reasoning should also apply to e-mail chain letters and virus scares.
In my xx years as a broadcast journalist (read that: Radio News Guy)
I've learned that you should never take anything at face value; no
matter what the source. Check it out first! If you can't verify it
through at least two independent sources, forget it!! I've yet to
find a virus scare or e-mail chain letter that was legit!!!
