I'm sorry to inform you that no one will get any significant amount of new readers by having a just-freely-register site with such mandatory fields:

of course Dr, I was just commenting for the possible readers like myself, yet not directed to the author himself ;)

@teixi fair. I will say, though, you're not the only person noting this, and if enough people email the magazine about this, directly, it may have some real impact
