Maybe they think I am a Cuban :-).<br /><br />ACM has paid me for columns I have written for the Communications of the ACM, but those are not refereed research articles.<br /><br />Given the attitude of our Treasury Department, I would expect a Cuban (or Iranian or North Korean) columnist, if there were one, would have to volunteer his or her article.

As far as I know there is a small remuneration with every article that gets published on those magazines, how will this work with the laws from the Treasury Department that forbids (almost) all transactions from US to Cuba?MuchasGraciasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3590880278864199477.post-45861444158237158882012-08-20T10:01:24.020-07:002012-08-20T10:01:24.020-07:00These are great news, really.
