I remember a story about a university that offered tuition breaks for students who a signed letter of recommendation from the leader of their religion (ie, pastor, etc). One student listed his religion as "Discordian" and got Robert Anton Wilson to sign it.
Or some such story....I think I just completely butchered the whole thing.
Sigh.
