Guest guest Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 No offense, but I can't help but wonder why if Snopes says it's so, it is. I mean, what gives Snopes so much credibility? How do we decide what is and isn't factual? Certainly not by reading it on Snopes! Gotta check to see who's making the claims and what their motivation is. Karen, your credo is a good one, and just as you said about Saccarin and " not coming clean with test results " , this is the status quo. Personally, if I know someone who's a diet soda drinker, and they feel lousy, I'm going to forward this info to them and let them decide for themselves -- regardless of who wrote it!

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Well, Snopes isn't the only group that's discredited the text of this particular email...the info on Snopes is concerning that particular email's text, not the entire subject.
