Specifics would indeed be welcome, assuming the story is true. I don't doubt it either, but until facts emerge, it's a tabloid story.

Well, from doing some web searches, looking for some corroboration, I see a very similar item (but written in the first person), in a web forum called the tree of liberty.

Don't know if this is the source, but it may be. No specifics, but it is a person saying "my son" vice "his son."

That first-person post is a anonymous blog comment. It has even less credibility than the main article. ;-)

This is how urban legends get started. Look at all the Freepers who aren't bothering to wonder if it's true.

"Button? Meet PUSH."

Might be true, might not. Certainly gets people excited, though, don't it?
