That was pretty fun.  Took a while before I finally pulled out pencil and
paper and did the math.  For a while there I was really getting worried
about Big Brother watching me.  If they can read our minds through the
internet now, we're done for.

For anyone who doesn't feel like breaking out the pencil and paper, Snopes
has gotten enough e-mail about this that they've put up a page with the
debunking.  Check the What's new? link at snopes.com

thanks,

James
