Talking with my dad on the phone this afternoon, I brought up Open Access and that protest thing we've been doing -- because clearly that's all I talk about these days. He's a real estate developer and self-described capitalist; I love him so much. We just have some seriously different instincts about a lot of things.

His suggestions:
- "So if the publishers are charging $50 for a paper, why can't you undercut them? Set up a competing publisher where you only charge $10!"
- "Maybe give a cut to the authors on every sale..."

One of us got the big money hustla/entrepreneur gene. Maybe it's recessive?
