The Yahoo link is just a news report on a press conference, you can't imply that Yahoo thinks there is any substance to the subject of the conference just because they post about it.
The other two links perhaps not unsurprisingly are hosted by the same host company on the same IP address so you can't use them as evidence of widespread belief either.

I'd never heard of that before, thanks for the link and the info. I can never discuss it at home but it is good to know
Along the same lines weren't a great many books previously published as non-fiction, I seem to recall that Gulliver's Travels, and Robinson Crusoe were a couple of the more notable ones.
