I was reading the Wikipedia entry for L. Ron Hubbard this
evening when I came across this little gem:
Hubbard was awarded the 1994 Ig Nobel Prize in Literature for "his
crackling Good Book, Dianetics, which is highly profitable to mankind — or
to a portion thereof".
Which made me laugh out loud. I now resolve that I shall in my scientific
career, publish a paper worthy of an Ig Nobel.

I own this book &
can say that it is amazing how somebody so whacked out on his religious
views can be so clear (no pun intended) on more earthly topics.
