Whew! Planet-dissolving dust cloud is a hoax

In this link, Snopes.com explains that the imminent planet-dissolving dust cloud you may have heard about, like everything else originally reported in the Weekly World News, is a hoax.

The Snopes.com website, by the way, is an invaluable reality check for all the bogus "information" that shows up in our e-mail baskets every day. The longer Snopes.com articles are models of analytical thinking and good expository writing. I highly recommend signing up for the weekly update.
