Wish I had access? Umm ... no ... and I will definitely not be recommending to my librarian.

Well, I got this email.  I do not view it as a valuable message.  But I thought I would share with others.  I guess the tone annoys me "Wish you had access?"  Well, not exactly.  I wish EVERYONE had access.  Therefore I wish that statisticians would publish in open access journals and that these journals would make more of their material freely available.  See below.

  1. It's strange that they are going with this "wish you had access" theme -- it kind of goes against the myth that corporate publishers like to promote -- that everyone who needs to have access already does.
