I'm sure it's still just that -- not an intentional decision, but just an accidental oversight. I can certainly imagine how busy they all must be. Sending another email would feel too pathetic, so I'll just grumble pathetically to myself instead...

I think Emily Warn is one of the editors in charge of web stuff, and if you send her an e-mail I'm sure you'll get Rattle on the list! I think this is a case of squeaky wheels - probably an intern is in charge of the list, and just adds journals as people are reminded of them.

I've made the same arguments (and I'd probably even eliminate subheading altogether). But it's not my call. I finally won the fight to update the internal layout with the summer issue -- don't know if you've seen it yet -- but that was more important to me than the cover font. I appreciate comments like these...I can use them as ammunition, next time I bring it up. But not only that -- just suggestions for improvement in general are always welcome. Anoth:), the act of omission itself is what's frustrating, and a reminder that, while we've caught on in certain sectors, a lot of people haven't noticed. I don't really care much about the link itself...just a drop in the web traffic bucket. Two Cents–I’m right there with you.
