Gawd, I am sooo tired of receiving that as a forwarded email by gullible
(but nice) people who know I'm into astronomy. Some ask "Is this for
real?" but the vast majority just forward it. Seems like that's been
floating around the internet for 4-5 years now ... maybe longer.
According to Snopes, it started back in 2003 when we had that perihelic
opposition. Sounds logical.
