Ahh, the late Alexander Abian ...
Abian presented the theory that time and mass are equivalent on sci.math and other scientific newsgroups. Basically, he thought that mass is consumed in creating time. Here is a summary of how he came up with this. (No real experimental data -- just a few necessary assumptions mathematically manipulated to make a coherent theory.) He extended his theories further to get the idea that:
1) We should make massive changes to the earth to make it a better place
2) We should bring Venus into a near-earth orbit so we can try out these changes on it first
3) Some of the changes we should make are getting rid of the moon and un-tilting the earth
He also had some non-crackpot mathematical writings on set theory.
For reasons known only to him, James "Kibo" Parry has collected some of Abian's postings, and his own responses to them.

Re:Not any time soon... but
Actually, I think the "randomtext" part is already happening. Coca-Cola used http://www.iydkydg.com/ for its "Coke Card" promotion this summer. What the hell is an "iydkydg" supposed to be? (I checked -- "iydkydg" isn't in Merriam-Webster.)
Of course, all loyal kibologists know that Kibo's HappyNet will include all newsgroup names from "*.aaaaa.aaaaa.aaaaa.aaaaa to *.zzzzz.zzzzz.zzzzz.zzzzz". We should probably just put Kibo in charge of the Web while we're at it. He makes more sense than any of Al Gore's plans.

Isn't this a little late?
I mean, we already have a patron saint of the internet, his name is kibo.

* A kibolgist (because Kibo is different in exactly the same way as you!)
