Some good viral marketing there.

I also wonder if he/she knows this guy.

Gee... This sounds familiar somehow...

The consensus on Snopes is that she is holding an early electronic hearing aid. They were available in the 20's, and about the size of a cigarette pack.

The article you linked to debunks it being a timetraveler.

I was casting dispersions on the idea of a time traveler being in the Chaplin film by relating it to another example of a supposed time traveler. One that had been thoroughly debunked in the very article I linked it to. Only to have it pointed out to me that it had been debunked.

The "bluetooth" comment was pretty much the same idea. What's the term for taking an argument to an extreme in order to make a point?
