Be part of an experiment!

I encountered this both at Lucy's and Profgrrrrl's (as copied from Profgrrrrrl):

Link to this post in the name of science. Ask others to do the same. Results to be announced during the "Meet the Bloggers" panel at MLA 2006.

Why? A grad student is doing an experiment on the speed of memes. What is the speed of meme?

The specific rules, as per Scott Eric Kaufman:
1. Write a post linking to this one in which you explain the experiment. (All blogs count, be they TypePad, Blogger, MySpace, Facebook, &c.)
2. Ask your readers to do the same. Beg them. Relate sob stories about poor graduate students in desperate circumstances. Imply I'm one of them. (Do whatever you have to. If that fails, try whatever it takes.)
3. Ping Technorati

And so take part! Link! Be part of something for MLA!
