To be strictly accurate, it is the SCI who has responded. Quite rightly as it was one of their staff who sent the offending e-mail. It's great fun to mouth off the "big guys", like Wiley (actually one of the last of the independent, family-owned publishers), but most people seem to be missing the point that Wiley themselves had nothing to do with this affair (other than the fact that they publish the Journal on behalf of the SCI). The original e-mail came from an assistant editor at the SCI and the affair has been quickly, and satisfactorily, settled by a more senior member of staff at the SCI.

Unfortunately that doesn't suit the loudmouths on Slashdot so poor old Wiley get all the flak for something they had little to do with. Now why doesn't that surprise me?
