[Taxacom] Monbiot editorial on academic publishing

[Wolfgang Wuster]

Purely as a matter of interest, does anyone have any figures on how much 
the academic publishing houses earn from individual pdf sales from their 
websites? Unless there are even more mugs in the world than I suspected, 
I expect it won't be a huge amount, since everybody just asks for them 
by emails to the author...
