Speaking of that, this is a bit of a digression but have you ever heard of the Sokal Affair? I learned of it years ago, but only just found out recently that not only was the journal Social Text pranked with a nonsense paper about QM, but even after it was revealed as utter nonsense the editors at the journal still defended it as valuable commentary!!!

In fact, the wiki quotes their response as saying Sokal's announcement merely "represented a change of heart, or a folding of his intellectual resolve".

THAT is impressive! Unfortunately it is very telling (my girlfriend just said "talk about the Death of the Author!"), but I think QM is just too juicy and fun of a concept for the less-rigorous (to be charitable) to leave it alone.
