Bleeding-edge research in a new branch of mathematics (the application of non-standard elliptical analysis to information theory), has recently proved that the above sentence carries exactly 0 bit of information.
Researchers in yet another field of applied mathematics (applications of non-standard elliptical analysis to decision making) have conjectured that only the fear of lawsuits will drive people to write sentences with provably zero information content !
I was not able to track the original paper, anyway I think this is cool !
