Re: Two things your grandchildren will never read: Newspapers, and "Proceedings"

["Andrew R. Reiter" <arr () watson org>]

I have to disagree in the sense that we should distinguish between 
conference proceedings and peer-reviewed journals.  I think you're very 
much correct about proceedings and what's happening, but I think we can't 
say as much about the journals.  Though, to support your statements, one 
should look at this little shared bit of logic:

"Ten Reasons Why Conference Papers Should Be Abolished"

Cheers,
