The stories are too frequent, too reasonable and so well attuned to
observations of human nature today to have much deniability on the
grounds of "lack of evidence".

I suggest that you go look up what an "urban legend" is and how they are
propagated, no matter how false they actually are.




Since I remain a regular reader and contributor to the a.f.u ng (That
alt.folklore.urban), the home of urban legends, I suspect I'm quite well
attuned to the credible/incredible threshold of such legends. This is a
subject which googling may open entirely new and unconsidered vistas to you
about lobsters and other delicacies for the identured staff...

Hint: The literary references alone would serve to validate the "legend".
