In-Joke

I just ran across one of the worst jokes I have ever heard. Unfortunately, it's a mathematical in-joke, and most people will not get it at all.

Question: What is an anagram of "Banach-Tarski"?

"Banach-Tarski Banach-Tarski".

I believe I get this one - isn't Banach-Tarski the proof of breaking up a sphere and making one twice as big out of the pieces?
