Thanks for the link, tsuwm. The paper has to be one of the funniest things that I have read for months! (sorry b-y - I have to disagree with you on this!) I don't think he was actually trying to be funny, which makes it even more risible, but if he has produced a "spoof" paper, it is very good.
I find it impossible to take such pretentious rubbish seriously.
Certainly, many - most, even - "jokes" have a target, but surely the really humourous items involve word-play, paradox and bathos.
