My aunt loves to send me emails... sensationalized pieces that once researched are proven easily to be nothing more that urban legends or spam.
It was always a race between me and my cousin (her son) to see who could de-bunk her 'urgent' emails the fastest.
I would usually use www.scambusters.org, www.darwinawards.com, or my favourite www.snopes.com.
She has started researching them herself now before sending them to her entire address book. Maybe she got tired of sending a 'nevermind... delete my last email' email.
I am thrilled, but whatever will I do with all my spare time now?
Here was the latest which happens to be TRUE! (Go figure!)

Now if we could just get 'W' to promote 60mpg cars!!
