I also received the "forward" from a friend saying that these campanies have filed. I definitely saw Linens and Things on the news, but have you confirmed the others ? I know that the restaurant business is terrible, since I have a brother who manages an Appleby's. The company Steve works for has travel restrictions. AND I've never seen so many "Go RVing " ads on TV as this year, so the RV industry must be suffering.

Unfortunately, I have not verified the report, but it came from a source I trust. So, I guess time will tell.

Here ya go My sister let me know about this cool site. You can verify whether a forward is true or not. Looks like this one is mostly true.

Another "Aye" vote for Snopes.com

They seem to be on top of most of the rumours, unlike

wikipedia.com

which lets every Tom, Dick, and Harry (and their DWs) edit, adapt, and begin "wiki" entries, without verification of any type.
