Uhhh, Geoff, I wouldn't cite that article too often. I know the one you're
talking about.
It was a -science fiction- story. It appeared in either "Analog" or the
"Issac Asimov Science Fiction Magazine." (I subscribe to both, the formats
are very similar.) I don't recall the title or author of the story, but I
clearly recall reading it.
I'm guessing it was published about five years ago, but I can't do any
better than that.
(BTW: Is this how urban myths get started??)
