NOBODY HERE BUT US CHICKENS ——- by Steve Nadis

The latest issue of the Annals of Improbable Research (September-October 2006 edition) features an article entitled “Chicken Chicken Chicken” that is, I’m sure, unlike any other you’ve read. The only words in the entire article are “chicken” and “chickens,” though the text also has numbers, charts, graphs, and equations. The inspired piece, written by Doug Zongker (formerly at the University of Washington), has already won two awards–”Best Paper” and “Best Paper on Chickens”–at the prestigious 2002 Potentially Computer Science Conference held in Seattle. If you have a chance to peruse the article, which is also available on Zongker’s website, you’ll see the awards are well deserved.
