    Actually this is apt for Humanties.

    After some investigation. That website is in fact fake. Lee jeans did an experimental home page to see if they could generate advertising via virual intenet marketing (eg. like Mahir). From what I gather this is one of them.

    The domain lookup is registered too...
    FALLON MCELLIGOTT (SUPERGREG3-DOM)
    901 Marquette Ave Suite 32
    MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55402
    US

    Which is kind of strange as the person is supposed to be Italian.

    From another site
    Rolling Stone had a sidebar about it in a recent issue... RS851, special "Net Bookers" section, page 5, entitled "Fake Home Pages: The New Corporate Put-On." I can't seem to find an electronic copy on their site, though.

    after a few more looks around, the domain belongs to VF corporation. They are ...
    VF Corporation is the largest apparel manufacturer in the world. For 100 years, we've grown by offering consumers high quality, high value branded apparel. Our leading brands in jeanswear, intimate apparel, knitwear and specialty apparel span virtually every channel of distribution.

    By understanding consumer needs and working in partnership with our retail customers, our goal is to be the world's most responsive apparel company.
