What happens after that, I don't know.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I had my bag stolen today--it had my ATM card and bankbook in it, along with 2 flashdisks (including one with a copy of my dissertation files in it).

I'd been mulling over whether to write to the journal editors about this (or even the article's writer), but I think I agree that it probably wouldn't be to my advantage. <BR/><BR/>By the way, I see the <A HREF="http://hnn.us/blogs/entries/29961.html" REL="nofollow">Cliopatra</A> blog picked up on this post and your comment.
