A Plague of Wrong-Way Cyclists!

I'm seeing wrong-way cyclists everywhere these days — and often going the wrong way in a bike lane!
Is this a by-product of a general increase in bikes on the streets? Do these people imagine that riding against traffic is safer?
Or is this just me being paranoid after a brutal crash I took when I plowed into two wrong-way cyclists a month ago?
How can we educate them? Every I see a wrong-way cyclist, I say, "Go with traffic." I don't know if it works.
