Earlier this year I linked to a bit of software that generates random computer science papers, and now via Todd Zywicki I see that the authors have posted videos of their random presentations from a conference they held in the same hotel as WMSCI 2005 in Orlando. If you recall, the grad students (Jeremy Stribling, Max Krohn, and Dan Aguayo) submitted a randomly generated paper to the WMSCI 2005 conference and it was actually accepted, until the hoax was revealed and their invitation was withdrawn.

This gives me a lot of encouragement as I labor night and day on my own PhD dissertation....

Hey you brought this whole thesis thing on yourself there bud.

Of course you do deserve credit for not going all wild-eyed leftist and demanding some tax increase on everyone to pay for your problems.
