Science published an article called “Who’s afraid of peer review?“. It describes a remarkable “sting” operation by the journalist John Bohannon, who submitted a spoof scientific paper to 300 or so open-access scientific journals. The paper claimed to offer evidence ... | 1.718501 | 1,010 | 1,008 |
Most of the expressways recently built in the New York region and most of those now being designed are part of this Interstate system. But because the New York area expressways system was started before the Interstate program, a number of regional highways that would have been in the free Interstate system are toll roa... | 1.632088 | 1,024 | 1,023 |
