[edit]Why is this term given its own web page when it is only referenced in WIRED magazine? Other trendy phrases are merely surrounded with quotes. --Dbabbitt (talk) 16:51, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
I disagree with Dbabbitt entirely. I find this article to be entirely appropriate and useful. I think that you are wrong to assert that it is so useless as to ask for removing it. I am glad that it is here. Please just leave it alone and consider adding useful content --Marcwiki9 (talk) 01:30, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
I'm not sure which search engine Dbabitt used, there are plenty of references to this term, including 8 from .edu domains. See http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=%22smart+cow+problem%22+site%3A.edu&btnG=Search&meta=
I strongly disagree that this is a trendy phrase, although even if it is, such is the nature of language. It evolves... 84.9.51.162 (talk) 22:34, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
