This is a procedural nomination; nom'd for CSD as a hoax; I'm not comfortable killing it under that grounds. Sending it here in hopes that we can confirm or deny existence. - Philippe 02:07, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Although there is a chance that this is for real, the phrase "making scholastic comprehension very difficult and often requiring those afflicted to take copious notes at the end of the day" sets off my bullshit detector with the possibility of this being a university-student-style hoax, or some sort of elaborately etiolated attack page. My understanding of WP:FRINGE suggests that if the scientific claim is far-fetched, the standard of proof required is somewhat higher; according to the talk page, this has nothing but "mistaken" citations. As the nominator suggests, I'd like some reliable sources. Accounting4Taste:talk 05:18, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
