Sandy, I think the argument here is that the benefits of OA are
sufficiently great that isolated instances like this do not outweigh them.
Keep in mind too that if any article flows from federal funding it will
already be made public after 12 months, at least the accepted manuscript

The "On Bullshit" example is quite an interesting one.
But I looked it up for the finer details of it - it is clearly not just a
