Get me off your f**king mailing list paper accepted by 'journal'

A journal has just been caught out for accepting and publishing a paper saying 'Get me off your f**king mailing list" 863 times.

In scientific circles there are journals which will publish anything for money - which they get from desperate, unscrupulous or naive scientists who want to pad their CVs.

Everybody involved in these scams hopes nobody actually takes the time to check the journals out.

One such journal, the International Journal of Advanced Computer Technology, has just published a paper by Dr Peter Vamplew.

Vamplew had been hoping to be removed from the journal's mailing list, so when they sent him a letter stating that they would publish his submission for $150, he was a little surprised.

His submission was originally Stanford's David Mazieres' and Harvard's Eddie Kohler's response to constant conference invitations, and consisted of the words 'Get me off your f**king mailing list" repeated 863 times, with a flow chart and graph.

He didn't even substitute his own name for the two original authors.
