Interesting but incomplete. Furthermore, really bad science.

This sounds like an undergrad research study (use LUKE, an automated text analyzer, to count 'meaningful' words), then hypothesize about why those words turn up.

No reproducible results, no predictions, no working model, no evidence that can be used to support or disprove existing theories.

A waste of time. Only reason it got press was that it hinted at sex and romance.
