When I first read the article, I was borderline on believing until I got to the KGBvax signature. I thought it was very humurous and not at all in bad taste. It certainly didnt take any more phone costs to post that and generate reponses than any of the other lame-brain articles one sometimes reads on the net. It seems that more comments are being generated from a discussion of the article than the article itself did. And personally, I believe that anybody (or any culture) who cant find humor in a joke, whether or not it is April Fools Day, is seriously lacking in personality.
