NPR did a good April Fool's Day story about Starbucks building a "coffee bean slurry pipeline" from Seattle to New York with the technical assistance of the Alaskan pipeline builders. It ran for about 15 minutes and was hilarious. I set about having some fun by calling friends and family and telling them about it. When they professed disbelief, I told them to just listen since we all know that NPR is a respectable organization. He, he, he.
