Unfortunately the ACM SIG can often be less than useful.  I would have
sworn that last April's SIGCHI journal was an April-fool's joke except
for the size of the document -- nobody spends that much money on an
April-fool's joke.

If you have the resources, I recommend finding that issue.  It's worth
its weight in comedians.
