Is that your frank assessment?

Is it true that all Franks go well with beans?

I’ve been frustrated before by the fact that some of my favourite journals will not give explicit rules for what is or isn’t a conflict of interest in nominating reviewers. Can I have worked or published with them before: if so, is there a time limit? What if we’re mates but haven’t published together? What if they were kinda mean to me at a conference, but failed to swear undying enmity? We want to avoid the situation where folks just nominate their mates and rubber-stamp each others’ papers, but the most rigorous application of conflict of interest rules can leave you with almost no viable reviewers.

Yeah, in some fields of science or scholarship the pool of people is--not large.

I have to look. I may, MAY, have a batch of unused perforated continuous paper somewhere. I definitely have some wide-format, green-and-white lined paper with RPG printouts in storage somewhere. And my dad used to bring home punch cards for note-taking, so I probably have a couple of those around as well...

I've probably got some somewhere, too. I know I've got printer paper even though our printer hasn't been used in literally years (maybe as long as a decade).

Speaking of reading at all, I’m taking another hiatus. Family health care crises need more brain than I have; ice go to scrape together all the resources I can. Back when there’s significant progress on any of the fronts.

Take care.

Take care of your family and when you return the usual gang of idiots (including myself) will still be here. Sending you some positive energy to you and your own today, now is that 1 or 2 spoons?
