Hmmm, I just reviewed for a journal that also had the 3 week expectation. And I was overdue of course, although my reminder looks a little different than yours. DMing you on Twitter...
Yeah 3 weeks is nuts.

RFF on the Issues: Two-for-One Order Provokes Lawsuit
Peter Nelson: President Trump is now facing a lawsuit brought by liberal groups contesting his recent “two-for-one” executive order, which requires two regulations be rescinded for every one implemented. Public Citizen, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the Communications Workers of Am...
ha! They were actually pretty evenhanded. Fellows have to do a seminar every month on the progress of their research, and the rule was "you own the first 5m, after that you own whatever you can defend". And they came at us with knives...I remember a fellow being told that his paper looked like a corporate press release.

Water pricing, "free" markets and climate change
Matt Kahn: Adam Nagourney appears to be an adherent of the ideas of the Club of Rome. In his NY Times front page piece today, he worries that California cities that encourage growth are exacerbating the "water crisis" by increasing demand during a drought that is likely to persist. What is the...
"Free Market Environmentalism played a key role in my early thinking about Coase and environmental economics too. My conclusion was that free market solutions wouldn't work."

Quote of the Day: I think John needs to measure the economic impact
Jose Abreu yells "I got it'' and not "yo lo tengo'' when there's a popup. We now know that for certain via espn.go.com The Baltimore Orioles are currently playing a game in front of no one.
Not sure Elsevier doesn't count as "predatory" although I know what you mean.

Am I the only person who starts his reviews by saying something positive? Seriously, people put effort to writing and research. Even if I don't think it should be accepted, I recognize that there are human beings who will be receiving this.

Only two?
From the inbox: I am sorry to inform you that I have decided to reject your submission ... One of the referee reports began with: "I see two huge shortcomings ... ." A lesser man might recognize that he is in the wrong profession.
Oh good. The wreckfish paper is in print.
