I am not implying that RPE is "just a conspiracy" journal, but that it gives an easy out to those who employ "guilt by association" fallacies to dismiss good articles from RPE. Personally, I have checked out a number of RPE volumes from the library and plan to check them all out. As you can see, I gave a perfect review to an issue of RPE here
