Science not being read

Of all the thousands of scientific papers published in 2011, only 17 were read. Scientists look at diagrams, summaries and a brief look at the actual lab work. Leave it to the review articles to summarize it later in condensed form.

Of the 17 articles, All were read by Stan Kowalski, 75, an emeritus zoology professor in San Clemente. He reads all experimentals and footnotes. All papers were on spiders and Stan sent in five corrections to the lead authors.
