Come on, you esoterics...

I've just had the following email from my Mum (she's a journalist):

"The boss has had letter-to-editor from a d'Arcy Orders claiming to be archvist for the Ancient Order of Kalithumpians - a dining club founded in 1920 - may have Cambridge (?univ) connections. We're not sure if it's a wind-up."

Google turns up no hits for "Ancient Order of Kalithumpians".

Anyone have any light to shed?

The Ancient Order of Kalithumpians was founded for the purposes of thumping the Monochrome user "kallisti" every time his opinions became too illogical or offensive (i.e. 6 to 10 times a day). It has since been disbanded due to "kallisti" leaving Mono. Apparently LJ users are moving to create an Ancient Order of Verlithumpians instead, though.

Oh, alright then, BLUFF.
