If you do a google search for ''crumpled paper'' you will be directed to a thread started here by me some time ago, rather than more serious information on the web. How is that possible?


In this case this has led to the author of the article to post here. Perhaps, if he has time, he should explain the paper here, because that seems to be a very effective way of exposing the public to his work.

It's those blasted net-spiders! Time to get another can of "Old Adolph's Anti-Arachnid Spray" and dowse the site!

Seriously, I'm not sure why it works that way, but it is to the site's benefit. And I'm all for an explanation of the paper, it sounds like an enjoyable excursion into the physics of the real. Much better than reading a doctoral dissertation about cockroaches!
