I guess we need to introduce a <sarcasm>...</sarcasm> tag, and maybe also <irony> and <satire> for those who wish to use those things too.
I remember a UseNet discussion about an emoticon for deadpan humour.
It would be better of course to have a header for emails, reminding people to boot up their sense of humour.
Say! That suggests the ideal solution: add a warning about sarcasm to [[Wikipedia:General disclaimer]]. Problem solved.
