Know who is speaking to whom, sez MF: Denis Dutton, the publicity hound that runs this low brow 'contest' on a list he
runs and is the 'judge' of the contest a) hates poststructuralist and 'postmodern' thought, and b) is no deep thinker. 
Contests must, I think, at least in principle have the possibility for a surprise outcome.  This is no contest.
