Subject:
This is Dan Mac Guill from the fact-checking website Snopes.com.
Our readers have asked us to look into your Dec. 26 blog post on the subject of Corelle dishes.
The post contained a screenshot of an email which one of your readers, Jennifer, appears to have received from a Corelle customer service agent named Monica.
As part of our efforts to find any and all relevant evidence surrounding your blog post, I would be grateful if you could forward me a copy of the original email.
I appreciate that you might not feel comfortable doing that, so it would also be very useful for me to be able to contact Jennifer directly.
I would be grateful if you could send me her contact information, or alternatively please feel free to forward this email directly to her.
I have also contacted Corelle directly, in an effort to gather as much evidence as possible and verify the relevant facts for our readers.
I would be grateful if you could get back to me by 3pm Eastern time today. If that looks like it will be a problem, but you do intend to respond, please let me know in advance.
Thanks very much for your time.
Best Wishes,
Dan

We have had our “LEAD” dishes since 1976 and used them all the time even with our two, now adult, daughters. Just put them all in boxes. How do we properly dispose of them?
