Snopes is another site that does debunking, in particular of urban myths.

Both sites seem to have good factual sourcing to back them up. But they both seem to get pretty judgmental and high-horse moralistic on people for believing stuff that seems borderline plausible.

I liked the single line "Am I being petty?" in that blog you posted to, JulianD. I think it applied pretty well to the entire article, which was rather shrill in its "I'm-mad-as-hell" tone.

Personally, I reckon if you're going to correct somebody's mistake, it pays to do so diplomatically in all but the most extreme circumstances. :/
