I agree with everyone: this is an intriguing idea. I feel like if we did it, it would be sporting to reveal which comments they were, after a suitable amount of time. One tricky bit is which accounts would post the comments. If they were all new accounts that hadn't posted anything before, that would lessen the value of the test. I'm not sure it would make sense to have dedicated accounts for this. Perhaps we'd have to sprinkle such comments among established accounts? With permission from the account holder, of course, plus swearing them to secrecy? That starts to sound complicated. |

stolen from https://arachnoid.com/jokes/index.html :
Two academics, Albert and Bill, are sitting in a bar waiting for their friend Charlie.
Albert: "Charlie thinks women don't know any math, he might be right, but I want to play a trick." Albert calls the waitress over.
Albert: "Delia, my friend Charlie is going to arrive in a bit, and I want to play a trick. When he arrives, I'm going to ask you a question, and I want you to answer, 'X cubed divided by three.' Can you remember that?"
Delia: "Sure, no problem, I can remember that."
Charlie arrives and Albert raises his favorite topic.
Albert: "I think you're wrong, I think women can learn math. Just as a test, let's ask the waitress a math question." Albert calls Delia over.
Albert: "What's the integral of x squared, derived with respect to x?"
Delia: "Umm, that would be ... x cubed divided by three"
Delia: "... plus a constant."
