The subject of the article may not be important. But I just can't get over it, they really think the Internet itself has any influence on this database(or whatever it is) when it's just the actual author. False or true, i find it quite funny.

Irony....I really hope you were trying to be ironic. The article you linked to is from the Onion...a parody news site.

The Onion is a satirical paper, not meant to be taken seriously. My favorite article was the one about the USA's capitol was going to be moved and was picked up by a Chinese newspaper (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Onion). (Go to the Onion taken seriously.)
