Actually, it did not. This is the first of several non-truthful
statements in this post, I happen to live quite close to Durham NC and
subscribe to the Durham Herald-Sun.


Indeed. A Lexis-nexis search turns up empty for the Durham Herald-Sun.

But it does turn up two hits:

The Herald (Rock Hill, S.C.), March 14, 2004
Saturday State Times/Morning Advocate (Baton Rouge, Louisiana), April
10, 2004

While this bogus astroturf letter made it's way into two obscure small
newspapers, it was not printed by the "Durham, NC local paper" as
claimed. Like the rest of the piece, it's loosely based on what might
be charitably be called "facts", but misses the [ob-sailing] boat
entirely when it comes to the truth.

I guess if you're stupid enough to mistake Rock Hill, South Carolina for
Durham, North Carolina, you'll swallow the rest of the ahistorical crap
contained within.

IOW, just another internet hoax reeling in a bunch of suckers who'll
believe *anything*. How many suckers? Just look at this:

(BTW - good job debunking the rest of it, Doug. You have much more
patience than I.)
