Summary: Inquiry on AMS abstract reporting(?) rediscovery of proof

References:

A few days ago, Ken Law's AI List digest contained an inquiry about:

AMS abstract 816-11-188 by Chen Wengen
"The missing proof of Fermat's last theorem has been rediscovered.  The
proof is elementary, zigzag, and truly wonderful as claimed by Fermat nearly
three and a half centuries ago. ..."

Has the proof been found?  If not, who's smoking what?  Anybody close enough
to a math library to find the abstract and it's source document?
