Not strictly an investing question...

Heard caller on one of those financial-advice type radio shows call in
and say that their tax advisor just told them about a 'new law' that was
passed as part of Clintons' 1993 tax bundle... the essence was that they
bought their home 27 years ago and had refinanced a few years ago and now
have a 2nd mortgage... and, that 30 years after their home purchase *they
would no longer be allowed to deduct interest on their home loan*!!

Anybody know anything about this 'after 30 yrs you cannot deduct
interest' deal? Or is it an 01-Apr-9x joke?
