Given the exisitence of this website 
<http://www.elsewhere.org/cgi-bin/postmodern> it becomes obvious that 
postmodernists themselves have become irrelevant social constructs. 
Also from the footnotes on the mentioned page, "More detailed technical 
information may be found in Monash University Department of Computer 
Science Technical Report 96/264: "On the Simulation of Postmodernism 
and Mental Debility Using Recursive Transition Networks". An on-line 
copy is available from Monash University."
