Given the reaction, if they logged onto KFM for any length of time, their heads would explode.

It was a hoax. The BBS had offered an apology and a retraction.

All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

"Three switched witches watch three Swatch watch switches. Which switched witch watch which Swatch watch switch?."
So passe. Resolved long time ago.
Isn't it possible that this was a publicity stunt?
Quite so! Well, at least the real Shaolin Monks of old, prior to the PRC, were for sure. That's why it was said of them..."Looked for, they cannot be see; listened for, they cannot be heard; and felt for, they cannot be touched."
And what about the Lin-Kuei Pai or Forest Ghost Clan, and the Mo-Shu Nan-Jen or Devil Skilled Men of Calamity? Both were spies and assassins of past centuries in China, and both probably preceded what became Ninjitsu in Japan, judging from the record of historical references?

JP, if you run a google search on the term "shaolin" you get approximately 7 million hits versus 61 million for "ninja". Make it "shaolin monks" and the number drops to 1 million, or "shaolin temple" down to 80 thousand.
For every Shaolin martial artist worldwide, how many will ever visit China?
As savy as the monks have become with dealing with tourists, a publicity stunt seems at least possible to me.
