Quotes in the press l “Humbug” “Wow, that was fast! Ten days between submission and acceptance is a record for me!” l “unless PhysChemComm delivers a knock-out blow [to its competitors] it just becomes one more journal that I have to put on my list to browse; so long as the Elsevier journal has good papers I will still need to check it” The Royal Society of Chemistry
