Heh. I did the same thing on sci.math. There are so many nutjobs over there; it's amazing! So I wrote up a post in which I "proved" that every odd number except two and "infinity minus one" was prime. I thought it was a fairly clever use of absurdity, but my responses were mostly angry debunking. Turns out that when you're defending yourself from a tidal force of nonsense, parody becomes harder to recognize.
