Research impact: We need negative metrics too

My colleagues J. Britt Holbrook, Kelli Barr and I had a letter published this week at Nature. Exciting for a humble daoist anarchocynic like myself.

The correspondence also contains a link to a slightly revised version of our original submission. Since Nature keeps everything behind a pay wall, here is that link.
