    Oh and don't forget all the optional charges that can get stacked on top of that for extra pages, figures above a certain size, and other bullshit that shouldn't matter at all when none of this stuff gets physically printed anymore, anyway.

    It's also ridiculous that a lot of these charges are chalked up to "paper processing fees" when the reviewers and often even the editors are volunteers (who more often than not have to find time outside of office hours to do that, since most universities don't factor it into their academics' expected workloads).

      Elsevier and Wiley execs will be among the first on the wall.
