Uhh, Tom...
snopes.com
The link was in my post from 15 months ago.
I'll forego the temptation to jeer at your search skills. You probably tried searching on some phrase out of the subject line, and I"ve tried that too, and also got just the Zone thread and one letter to the editor. I found the snopes debunking by searching key phrases from the email itself, though I remember not what they were. I guess there's a lesson in there somewhere, about something like not confusing commentary about a thing with the thing itself.
