Website Authenticity

The website I chose is Dihydrogen Monoxide. At first glance the site seems pretty official. The extension is .org, suggesting that its goal is ultimately to present opinions in favor of their cause, in this case the theory of dihydrogen monoxide and its possible threats. Even still, the information appears scientific, they cite from studies and provide names of the people who conducited them. The copyright to the site is owned by Tom Way, and no other name or publisher is mentioned. After google searching his name I found his biography hosted at the college he currently teaches for, Villanova University. Four paragraphs down while speaking of his accomplishments, Tom and the DHMO site are mentioned, "Director of Research of the successful science satire web site DHMO.org". As if this isn't proof enough of the websites lack of credibility, further reading often shows DHMO being referred to as hydric acid. A google search for this brought up a wikipedia page documenting the dihydrogen monoxide hoax and its history. Taking these findings in to account, it is apparant to see that this website may appear to be, but certainly is not valid.
