Well, this certainly makes a very good case for reading the whole thread before you hit the 'Reply' button.
This being so artfully batty, yet so apparently believed, reminds me of the 'Loony Left' stories you used to get in the newspapers. You know, the ones about how nursery schools were told they had to sing 'Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep' so as not to be Racially Insensitive. Just as daft, just as fabricated, just as widely disseminated as fact and as splutteringly, monocle-poppingly seized on as proof that We're Going To Hell In A Handcart. You still get them now, except it's usually some bollocks about how a council's going to rename Christmas "Winterval" so as not to offend some entirely hypothetical muslims.
The chapter in The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan, in which he advocates the cultivation of a mental discipline called "The Baloney-Detection Kit", should be required reading in schools. As should the rest of the book, come to think of it.
The main thing I liked about the Techeye article was the comments, the majority of which seemed to be bent on verbally eviscerating the 'husband' for being so stupid and gullible.
