Snopes to the rescue
So, there's this close family friend who's a bit naive, despite the fact that she's old enough to be my mom. And she constantly sends all these Internet forwards warning people about various things to everyone on her e-mail list, of which I seem to be a part. Thing is, about 95% of the e-mails from her are Internet hoaxes, and I usually find the listing disproving that particular urban legend on Snopes within a minute or two. The question is, do I hit "reply all" to everyone and send along an excerpt of the disproof -- which I've done occasionally in the past when it's regarding a company or product I use and don't want to wish ill upon, or when it's the second or third time she's sent the same warning along -- or do I just hold my virtual tongue and hit "delete"?
