Ever wanted to write a scholarly paper on MST3K? Robert Weiner, humanities librarian at Texas Tech University, may have your opportunity.
\nHe writes:<\/p>\n

Call For Papers–Mystery Science Theater 3000
\nCollection of Academic Writings.
\nI am putting together a book that looks at MST and its cultural implication, the Internet and the creation of similar shows (Rifftrax and Cinematic Titanic) by former MST people, who have kept the spirit of MST alive.
\nAny topic will be considered. Please note this will be a scholarly collection. Essays should be 5,000-9,000 words in length (including endnotes and bibliography). Please email me if you have any questions.
\nDate for abstracts is October, 2009, but I can start taking them now. Final articles are due January, 2010. It\u2019s just a book so we should really just relax.
