A link would be nice, yes. But a few questions: When was the proof released? What was the release date on the documentary? And while I have great respect for the BBC, I'm a lot less inclined to have confidence in the accuracy of *any* documentary right now, having had someone point out to me http://www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html yesterday, and having read it. (But the BBC is in a class light-years above Michael Moore.) (And it *is* possible for hysteria to get the better of people and have them display psychosomatic symptoms of something a lot more serious, such as the effect of chemical or biological weapons.)
