Science world in revolt at power of the journal owners

 Dear All,
Did you read the following report? Someone reported that "the
Elsevier-Harcourt merger would give one company control over journals
representing 42% of a typical university's spend in that area". I didn't
bookmarked the URL but you can find it using "Guardian Elsevier Harcourt" as
key-words. I know what S.B. is thinking
(http://palaeo-electronica.org/2000_1/editor/edit/bengts2.htm) but I'll be
pleased to know what are the current positions amongst the Paleonet
subscribors?
