"research" from Snopes? Often vague non- definitive information as full of "maybe's" as the original information. Like that example. Guess its best to run postings through a legal team first...

I was just stating, that if you learned about it via email, 99% of the time is bogus. Do some research on it, I only provided one source of info, there is a lot of pages on the internet that can assist you.
