Default Re: More hybrid skeptics

We are looking at finding an affordable copy of the article. I suspect some of our European friends may have access to the article so I'll ask in the Yahoogroup. But I am reminded of the risk of a 'circular authority' . . . one cites another, sites another and eventually comes back to the first 'authority.' Has this 'journal' become a closed clique of reviewers and authors sharing the same opinions?

From a big picture, if this remains an isolate, inaccessible article, I'm not going to lose much sleep over it. But if we see mainstream media pick it up and cite it as a source, then I'll have to rethink. Fading to obscurity is fine by me.
