WoW! I hate them.
It seems my university is subscribed and I could browse it freely…
I'll talk to you off list.
Here at CNRS, you are starting to struggle against this crazy system:
1) we pay to submit papers
2) we pay to read papers from others
3) we have to pay more if we want our papers to be freely accessible
4) we are not paid for peer review
4 times a shame, at least.

Unless Elsevier is even more evil that I thought, Nemo should still be
able to post a PDF on lsub.org. Now, if they're really evil, they got
exclusive rights...
Yes, this is point 5) I forgot. Once your paper is submitted and if you
want to publish it via any other fees-less channel, say, this list, I
think you need to slightly modifidy your paper. Basically, you give
your rights to the publishor/editor on the paper you submitted. We
could state that they now own about ~95% of human knowledge, published
in the form of specific papers. Somehow, this is scaring.
