- I feel that publication of names of accepting referees of articles in the
- traditional journals would go a long way toward solving the problems I
- perceive exist there. I would like to see the reviewer's name on each
- article accepted.

- I might also suggest that the moderators consider some referal procedure
- when they recognize that a submission is outside their area of competence
- while still within physics. If this is to be a truly high level research
- discussion group that will happen quite often.
