First - I wasn't the first one to use "hoax," but I'll let that part of the discussion die.
Without talking about my viewpoint on this, you can't take one data point (on anything) and make a argument out of it. To do so fails to take into account the entire picture. What you've done is essentially the same thing Al Gore did when he said "hey look, ice here is melting - that must be climate change." Anecdotal evidence, such as you've presented, is COMPELLING, but largely useless.
Let's pull diving somewhere into this discussion and keep everyone interested...
