Pre-Cyrillic writing thousands of years ago?!

Dear Cybalisters,

What follows is a posting sent to me from another list a few days ago.
Any comments would be highly appreciated (especially regarding the
institutions, do they really exist? I can't find any reliable info on
them. Are those people real linguists/archeologists? I hope they
aren't.).

Best,

P.

Dear All,

I'm [new on the List], so I hope this won't be off-topic.

My major interest is linguistics and I think my knowledge of this area
is not bad. That's why I was horrified when I came across the
following "report" a week ago (a PDF file):

Please, does anyone know anything about this "conference" and/or its
participants? Do they really exist? Are they experts or "experts"? I
wish this was just a joke - a really stupid one.

Thanks a lot for any comments!

Best wishes,
