Thank you for sharing this! I'm proud to be using a metaphor with such an illustrious history.
I like (and appreciate) your comment. And I agree with your assessment of the stigma open access journals seem to have acquired. Unfortunately, I think some folks don't realize that many open access journals are also peer-reviewed; thus, their standards are often as rigorous as those of print publications. The next task for open access advocates might be trying to prise apart the distressing association between "free access" and "low quality."
