Nah, there's no wit there. As a meme, it is poorly built -- mismatched 
snippets of ripped off stuff, irrelevent gobbledygook (if you want an ELF 
waveform, use a sine wave, not a "HAARP sample"), pretty graphics, with a 
notes section ripped off from http://asa.npoint.net/ebatf95.htm, other 
stuff from http://www.borderlands.com/archives/arch/elf.htm, etc.; as a 
joke, it is boring; as a "tongue-in-cheek" commentary, it is irrelevant: 
the topic you allude to is 40 years old if it is a day; what's the news 
about ? Stuff you can find in any good college bookstore ?

There's far too much infocrap in this world; I don't see what the point is 
of layering on some more.
