How discovered? How is it possible to have two domains for the same page? Is it done elsewhere?

Done really easily. All you have to do is park your domain somewhere and have it point somewhere else. Anyone could do it — you could set one up for, say, “spooks.org” and have it point to nsa.gov no worries, assuming you owned the spooks.org domain.

This is probably someone’s clever idea of a practical joke. And it’s a good one!

One needs an account to set up a webpage somewhere (I use powweb) you register a domain name like itanimulli.com then use a function on your webpage account to have the domain name "point" to whatever other domain you wish.

For instance if you bought a domain name called pepsisux.com you could have it point to Cokerulz.com even if you didn't own cokerulz.com

Someone’s created a site that is a link to that site. Clever.
