Hi, Declan.

First, let me thank you for your tireless and unstinting coverage of the
September 11th events and their aftermath and implications. With so much
dubious flotsam and jetsam circulating right now, yours is one of the sane
and astute voices helping to sort things out.

I notice that you cited the snopes.com/Urban Legends site to dispel and
clarify the rumours about the CNN-using-old-Palestinian-footage story.
There is more explanation of the "radio blacklist" story, there, too. You
would do a great service by circulating the Web address for the special
Urban Legends page devoted just to terrorist attack-related stories. (Every
time I get that freaking Nostradamus thingy forwarded to me, I send back
this address ...)

Thanks again, Declan.
