WTG, TF!
Snopes.com is the place to confirm or refute a whole host of urban legends,
chain letters, various virus alarms and scurrilous lies about people (such
as in political campaigns). You can even sign up for their newsletter and be
occasionally ahead of the game when your buddy sends you something bogus.
Just for the halibut, I put in ³sailing² into their search window, and the
top two items are:
Do photographs taken from a yacht show a volcanic eruption at sea?
http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/maiken.asp
Were brass monkeys used to store cannonballs on ships?

One is true, one is false.
