|content=Do you remember when JFK took his own life in Dealy Plaza? No?
Well that’s how this reads to me.
This never was a self-made currency-trading genius billionaire. Almost certainly, this was a huge program. And someone f——d it up by hiring [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffery Epstein]] as its face & front end.

|content=Trying to build a haystack to hide the Space Needle?
We stumble on a gigantic program w synapses connecting the UK royal family, Harvard/MIT/Stanford, Bill Gates, Kompromat, [[Robert Maxwell|Robert Maxwell’s]] [[Ghislaine Maxwell|kid]], POTUSes...and there are 1000s???
The NYT is now OJ looking for the “real killers.”

|content=It's good to see the outrage at [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffey Epstein]]. But there are thousands more [[Jeffrey Epstein|Jeffrey Epsteins]] out there, and tens of thousands of victims. So here's how we can channel our anger to make a difference. My Sunday column, just posted: https://nyti.ms/2LuQK5S

|content=In pretending this is mostly about a single wealthy sex offender attended by a never ending series of miraculous coincidences of ever escalating improbability, this is no longer the elephant in the living room. This is the rotting Blue Whale at the US national thanksgiving table.

|content=Academe. We still haven’t woken up to the destruction of [[Robert Maxwell]], [[Peer Review]], oversight & transparency.
If you still believe that peer review has always been the gold standard in science, you simply didn’t want to look at the history of Permagon Press and its aftermath.

|content=Please see my current Pinned Tweet.
Peer review isn’t what we think it is. Look at how [[Robert Maxwell|Robert Maxwell’s]] Pergamon Press made his family rich by extorting universities to “complete” their libraries by creating journals that should not exist at prices universities could not afford.

|content=Am I mad? Not in the slightest. As to why scientists can’t afford to look at the truth, the author correctly put his finger on that issue too: Academic research has what I call a “Hotel California” problem.
The author may have publicly checked out of legacy journal work. But

|content=Academics have to be quite sensitive. Even the bold of academe don’t want to talk about how we quietly switched from editors holding the reins at a few high quality journals, to peer review mysteriously taking over as the number of lower tier journals exploded.
Crazy talk
 ;-)

|content=Don’t take it from me. Look at the history yourself with these search terms:
[[Peer Review|History of Peer Review in Science]]
Pergamon Press
[[Robert Maxwell]]
Number of academic Journals over time
Cost of Academic journal subscription
Reviewer compensation
Tuition over time
Good luck.
