Quoted in today's New Scientist (10 July 2004 issue, p.92) from www.theregister.co.uk: "It appears that the US navy spokesman put up to answer journalists' questions about the US detention centre at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is one Lieutenant Mike Kafka. "As the article on The Register observes: "Yes, you're reading correctly. A man named Kafka has been deployed to field questions about a prison where the criminals are only vaguely charged with crimes, can't speak to lawyers and likely will never get out". Any resemblance this reality bears to an actual fiction is entirely coincidental".

When I first saw that I thought the last line was the funniest thing I'd seen in years.
Of course it doesn't make a lot of sense unless you've read The Trial.
