I think urban legend, saw it about a year ago.
I got this in an email a while back. I think it's an urban legend.
agree. It's not new.
The story is true and was posted here about six months ago.

Well, I take it back. The email may be old, but is not urban legend according to the above site.
Yep. I got it too, via email. Evidently this has been bouncing around the internet for some time.
I saw it about 6 months ago. It is an urban legend (I don't know whether true).
