In general, the advice to people before passing these on to other people
is to check with someone locally or with some authoritative source about
the quality of the information.
Information about these hoaxes along with a couple of amusing spoofs can
be found at
http://ciac.llnl.gov/ciac/CIACHoaxes.html
I hope readers already familiar with hoaxes will excuse this message, but
as we approach April 1st, I expect more hoaxes taking my time and I would
like to help limit their effects.
