My favorite paper in this style is one which has not (yet) been=20
published. It turns out that at one time there were at least=20
three Mark Millers active in computer science. One of them, cced=20

by Mark Miller, Mark Miller, and Mark Miller
And the paper really doesn't need to go any further than this.
