Chloegoth, it's ok. LOTS of people have believed that rumor, myself included. Seriously, it's been going around for as long as I can remember (although I'm only 19) and I was SHOCKED when doing a consumer report on them to find that it wasn't true.
Damn. Now I have to find another excuse to shop the sale racks at the Gap ('cause their clothes are very cheap on sale). Good to know, though.
