Excellent point, jas. But I wasn't particularly impressed with the web page, I was impressed with the verbage. It takes more than a couple of minutes to write an article like that. If it does turn out to be a total hoax (as you are slowly convincing me), I wonder how much money the perp was able to make?

due to tom jones question,jas I think you need to re-educate people to how EASY it is for ANYONE anywhere to post a fake news article on the internet as was done yesterday---to tom jones see post #29819 people tend to keep raising points on threads that have many times been just answered because they don't read the thread--jas cooper answered this for everyone and yet there are people that just don't bother to see what others are posting--sorry to be snippy,this morning,but I for to often see people jump into a thread without reviewing the discussion.Max90
