    "On Father’s Day three years ago, biologist Jonathan Eisen decided he’d like to republish all his father’s papers. His father, Howard Eisen, a biologist and a researcher at the National Institutes of Health, had published 40-some-odd papers by the time that he died by suicide at age 45." These first two sentences of the article already reveal Dobbs' strategy: he wants to make a case for Green OA with the touching personal story of Eisen. Nevertheless, it is a good thing that OA gets some coverage on a general interest website like Wired.com.
