Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Except when it's not.

In this case, the imitation calls into question every last point made by the original. The spoof, created by the Diamonds for Africa Fund, is very well done.

I haven't read about this elsewhere, which makes me worry for two reasons. First, the diamond people and/or rebels may be destroying sites that mention realdiamondfacts.org. And second, now that I've said I haven't seen this before, fifty angry bloggers will be sending me their links and threatening to chop off my hands and/or lips. Either way, it doesn't end well.
