Something must have happened to physics. For the moment the most 
popular paper on the internet is

http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0412039

where it is clearly stated that Einstein's "postulates themselves are 
false". Whether they are false or not should be extremely important 
by definition but some unknown development has produced established a 
situation in which nobody cares. Rather, there is an ongoing debate 
trying to resolve the problem concerning Einstein's hair. Some 
theoreticians have discovered that the mad hair of Einstein on his 
most popular portrait frightens children and the crisis in physics 
education is due to this deplorable effect. They think that younger 
and sexier portraits should immediately be introduced. Others don't 
find this very important but don't see what else could have caused 
the death of physics education. In any case, the debate is not 
disturbing the fierce celebrations - the intensity of worshipping at 
the traditional protrait seems to be unaffected by Einstein's 
hair.
