CRC Press is, IMHO, evil.

I just sent the following via the feedback form at http://www.crcpress.com/ejournals/contact.asp

Just a quick message to let you know that, due to your treatment of Eric Weisstein, I will never buy one of your books and will do by best to spread the word of what I personally consider to be your unethical business practices. I fervently hope that others will reach the same conclusion I have and take the same action.

after I read the story at http://mathworld.wolfram.com/erics_commentary.html

I think that my language above avoids slander and libel against CRC Press. If anyone disagrees, let me know and I'll rephrase this public posting.

I realize that CRC publishes all sorts of specialty titles that contain material difficult to find elsewhere. Please try?

Sad.

I think you've successfully avoided defaming CRC Press. The only thing I can think of that you could do better would be to put the entire story in this posting -- which would be ridiculous.
