That was my initial thought, although it's dated April 16. The level of
detail is even lower than one would expect in a joke, lending credibility
that it's typical consumer press, probably exaggerated, maybe grossly so,
but perhaps echoing actual work. I looked up the prof who appears to be
real and his pubs list includes some stuff on the subject. Unfortunately,
the one article I tried to access was in a closed, academic journal. Anyone
know anything about this?
