i was just going to post something about that. The Luther Blissett
*Project*, not Luther Blissett himself, is actually responsible.
Luther Blisset is an english soccer player. This anonymous group of
artists have been using his name when doing various anarchist and
situationist projects. the website copying is only the latest.
It's basically a Monty Cantsin/Karen Eliot style multiple name project.
see one of their sites at: http://www.syntac.net/lutherblissett/
and another: http://www.pengo.it/luther/bliss0.htm
also see this story about the real Blisset's reaction:

pretty amusing...
