I've realised that if I'm going to (continue to) be a productive and creative intellectual that makes some kind of valuable contribution, I need to do everything I can to ignore and protect myself from the bureaucratic and intellectually impoverishing madness that is the REF The idea that a single publication has some kind of essential ontological status that can be captured in a category such as a number like 3 or 4 and that the number awarded in an internal panel would be replicated in an external panel w a different set of academics is ludicrous
