Reminds me of a story a German journalist once told me about his visit to the Berkeley political science department in the late 1980s. He was talking to them about changes in the USSR, and several esteemed professors at this esteemed university asked, "Is Gorbachev for real?" His English wasn't idiomatic enough to summon "clueless bozos" as an appropriate appellation, but it sums up his reaction.
