Type "hoax" into any search engine, and you'll find numerous sites that make
it very easy to track down any of these hoaxes/urban legends. If you got
the Nostradamus predictions in the past coupla weeks, you could have easily
found that they were written by a graduate student in the 90's, and links to
the "real" "friendly canadian" article (much different than what was
circulating).
