easter egg

Hi all,

I'm currently translating some signs, posts and panels and I've found what I think is an easter egg that was never reported before.

I don't know where nor with certainty if there is such a post, but here is the text I've found on a usecode function for message in posts:

"j r r t
a great man
a great writer"

I don't see anyone else than JRR Tolkien being refered to.

Anyone found this post anywhere? Anyone has any other easter eggs to share?

In The Black Gate there is a statue with that or a similiar caption, on a plaque, in the Skara Brae graveyard.

Actually, I think it's not in Skara Brae, but in Empath Abbey's graveyard.

I don't see any items with this text on it in SI.

as you know, the SI developer sometimes just copied and pasted usecode functions and altered only one or two parts.

Maybe that's what happened here.
