          Perhaps their financial judgment was equivalent to their     
     editorial judgment.



   It now

         By another (intellectually) bankrupt journal? Or "privately"? 
         You name a library we could borrow it from; if no other       
         libraries acquired it, this raises questions.  I notice you do
         not give the normally expected citations--name of journal,    
          year of publication, etc.  If it is in a book, this is not
          impressive; any fool can be published in a book.
