By the time a meme makes it to the New York Times, it's too late to stop it. 
It's now common knowledge among the non-cognescenti that there is a massive 
worldwide illegal meteorite black market. A perfect example of argumentum ad 
populum: "it must be true because so many believe it." Fifty million Elvis 
sightings means the King still lives, right?
