I have this theory that some of the documents we're sent for publication on the web are actually intended to contain information.

NGGGGHHHH.

It certainly looks like a controversial theory, based on the evidence.

It's all in a s00per seekrit code to communicate with the Lizard Overlords! And you don't have the decoder ring.

Maybe, in a desire to maximize information, each of these publications is a sample of random noise?

Half of this hypothesis is almost certainly true, though to be fair I haven't analysed it to see if it's genuinely random.
The other half suggests that there's some kind of deliberate will being exercised rather than just general flailing about.

You are excluding the possibility that the experimenter is external to the department, and is directing the flailing according to her whimsy.

Hell, I'm still hanging on to the hope that the whole thing is just a big simulation being run by two white mice. Now, who moved my cheese?

You mean those things that we do experiments on? It must be Friday, I never could get the hang of Fridays...
