The Definite Article : Acknowledging ‘The’ in Index Entries (pdf) is this years’ winner of the IgNoble Prize in Literature. Note that the banner of their site includes the phrase “Research that makes people LAUGH and then THINK”, and note that the winning essay fills that criterion well.
By the bye, how does anyone find out if a library has any music by The The via an OPAC… simply wade through titles between “thazzz” and “thea”??? An Inter-Library Loan staff member pointed that out to me years ago, and it still highlights one of the challenges of significant articles in titles.
