[Esip-preserve] FW: Major publisher retracts 43 scientific papers amid wider fake peer-review scandal from The Washington Post

[Bruce Barkstrom]

Here's another note on the same story - although the number of papers and
publishers is larger

http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/science/2015/04/fake_peer_review_scientific_journals_publish_fraudulent_plagiarized_or_nonsense.html

Note also that Bruce Schneier's blog has a similar note on the software
producing these things,
but dated back to Feb. 2013.

Sigh!
