I've heard the same. I'm not sure that I believe any of it though. I change around 3.5 quarts of ATF out of the tranny on my '94T-conv every time I change the oil, every 3K. Overkill I'm sure but....ATF is cheap and it keeps fresh fluid in there all the time. It is at 108K miles now(bought at 64K miles, not knowing previous history) and it shifts and drives very nicely.
I think the thing is to keep changing fluid regularly after the initial flush. That is my own opinion though and I am no expert.
