[thelist] Looks familiar ehh?

I'd like to point out the current message on the site for those who
haven't seen:

http://www.planet-tolkien.com/

Which reads in part:

  "I left the site in what I thought was the capable hands of by
  stepbrother!...
  
  Also as many know we somehow gathered a new blue design before. Well he
  blatantly ripped it of a cool site called www.evolt.org. Making out to
  be his own when he rang me last week...

  Not only is this amazing in it's self. But he posted many messages in
  the main area (this one  and the forum) posing as me...

  Yes I have repeatedly kicked the smiley faces out of him and am now
  going to make A MASSIVE apology to Evolt and all their fans..."

Now, I have to say that this reads a bit like an excuse that I would've
made up when I was 17. However, it's emphatic and apologetic enough that I
think perhaps we can take it on faith and drop the issue.
