Re: prediction: exponential increase in citations to open access articles

While convenenience and accessibility are important, one would think the
most important thing in judging an article is its content, not whether all
of the citations are "clickable."  As for the citations, they should cover
relevant literature based on its value and importance for the article, not
its format.  Sloth is always with us, but it should not be allowed to pass
for good scholarship.
