Ever since I heard about Welles' War Of The World hype-come-mass-hysteria when I was a little boy, I've liked the idea of using media in a clever way to play the audience. I believe this to be another one of them ploys by some big ad company. You be the judge though: findmygoblin.be
If you ask me: Sprite's behind this.
[edit] I can tell you now with certainty that we're dealing with a Sprite commercial. Just saw it on the televisional tube. It rang so many bells that I googled it and finally found out that indeed I saw it before a couple of years ago. Apparently the same commercial ad and meme-trick was pulled in Great Britain somewhere in 2002.
