    Isn’t the whole point of snopes.com that you shouldn’t trust anonymous, unsourced, unverified email? Why, then, would you trust this one? It’s obviously someone with an axe to grind.

    It doesn’t take long to find dozens of interviews with the owners of the snopes.com site — I stopped looking when I got as far back as 1997 — so it doesn’t appear they’ve been hiding very well.
