How to Shorten Your Journal

We did work hard on restricting how long papers were. We would tell authors, you've got to shorten your paper by 30 %. That was one of the reasons we went first to 18 issues a year and then to 24 issues a year. And then before i finished his editor, we planned to go to weekly. That enable you to have thin journals and publish more papers. Even though i hated to reject papers, we did reject more papers with each passing year.
