Wow -- apparently The Guardian actually has a recurring section called "Academics Anonymous"??? That seems like an interesting story in its own right.

Well done pointing this out. This supposed academic, is doing palpable damage to his/her own industry.

This is the kind of article we can expect to be quoted by the right-wing crazies who want to shut down all universities.

As a commenter beneath the article pointed out, it also rather clashes the Guardian's own one day seminars on "How to Write an Academic Paper and Get It Published", a snip at £249 per person...
