As I’ve mentioned here before, the fact that defendants of Lucas and co. have insisted that the NMMNHS bulletin follows the same criteria for publication that other in house publications do, has me worried about the validity of these other publications. In particular, the AMNH Novitates and Bulletin series.
Three days ago, Mark Norell, curator at the AMNH, sent correspondence to DCA chair Stuart Ashman, setting the record straight on the publishing practices at the American Museum of Natural History.
Needless to say, my worries were unnecessary and my skepticism regarding the statements of Norman Silberling, and others, regarding publication practices of the NMMNHS bulletin, was well founded.
Head on over to Mike Taylor’s site, and give it a read, yourself.
