[Taxacom] Happy times for incompetent taxonomists

Fri Feb 24 12:00:20 CST 2012

Bob - I have to thank you for posting this.  Seldom has a posting to taxacom provided so much clarity!  I now understand those strange solicitations of papers I've been getting over the last couple of years, and requests for reviews of papers that should have been rejected on sight by competent editors...

It's all about the $$$$

Why self-publish when you can pay one of these prestige publishers?
