Yes. Ebenol...I did that so it would look like it went to bbc.co.uk...and thus not make everyone read "OMFG this is fake" and ruin the fun they would have for a few minutes contemplating if it was indeed real or not before they realised the URL was wrong.

Note I said earlier: "Before anyone says anything, I already know." That was referring to exactly the thing you just did.

That's why it was done. The guy and some friends were arguing about that with midgets and a lion. (If you go to their site, it tells you that)

Only 42 midgets?

They never stood a chance.

That wasn't a fight, it was a scheduled slaughter.

My neighbor told me this story (first I had heard of it) and since I help people find things on the Internet, he asked me to look for video footage of it. I searched google and found this forum. Everything I have seen to this point (and my personal experience with this sort of thing) indicates that this is a fictional story rather than a recent event.

I just told my neighbor the news, and he said he personally heard this story not just on Howard Stern, but from other sources here (near Los Angeles, California). See how easy it is to manipulate the information that comes to you and influence and control you?

Among the many other indicators, if you view the meta tag information in the source HTML of the supposed BBC webpage of the story, you can see that it was a different story about Cambodia that the artists used as their source material. This original story is still on the BBC website, here. You can see how the links on the top right side of the page match up as you read about what seems much more real... millions of people killed by their misguided (forcing) government.

A funny joke? It is a good example to demonstrate that we need a way to track the source of information and anyone who manipulates it -- to create a known-source chain from newsgatherer to individual -- where information is treated like an evolving stream and can be trusted to a much higher degree due to its openness for input/comment.

Superwiki is a key component of the completely distributed, friend-to-friend "Cosmic Internet." Read a current snapshot of the oGo3 evolving information stream.

... and one more thing. I always thought 'MC' stood for "Master of Ceremonies" ... you know, the guy with the microphone. What is right? wrong? real? fake? Who is trying to rip you off and who is trying to hook you up?

peace out
