Re: New journal

[Steven Hunt <hunt@lclark.edu>]

I do not lament the decline of forensics scholarship. I think what we 
have now is as good as we have ever had (whatever that might say good or 
evil) What I do say is that current journals are trying hard to get good 
forensics scholarship The Forensic, CEDA Yearbook, NFA Journal , Register 
etc. There are calls for theme issues. Editors do invite papers. There is 
an effort to have forensics forums on issues like permutations in 
counterplans, critiques, generic argumentation, etc. 
Still, we do not have authors rising in mass to the bait and producing 
lots of wonderful papers, forum  opinions, or scholarly reviews of books, 
videos, or software. Until that happens, I see little or no need for a 
new journal. The desire or want for a new journal may be there despite no 
need, but I think it would dilute the pool of available material.
Also where are the reviewers/critics/ associate editors with lots of 
experience, background, and critical sensitivity to help on this journal?
If they exist why haven't they volunteered their services to current 
journals?
