Yes, I was April Fooled. This morning, while all the hubbub was going on about GMail, I saw a post on a popular discussion list from someone who had swallowed the press release hook, line and sinker.

PowerBar Founder Dies of Heart Attack

Brian Maxwell, PowerBar founder and marathon runner, died Friday of a heart attack at the age of 51.
