The letter states that: I am aware that Dr. Laudise or Dr. Snitzer asked that the manuscript be sent to them directly but because all production and editing emanates from this office, I request that you send your manuscript here. Please send two copies and I will forward one immediately to the senior editors. (HR 24). 74. Hill's manuscript was received by the Annual Review of Materials Science on 8 September 1992 (Findings 49 and 54). 75. Cooperman testified that the following procedures were followed in connection with the submission of manuscripts for Volume 23 of the Annual Review of Materials Science: a) the guest editors for the Volume 23 were Robert A. Laudise and Elias Snitzer, whose responsibility was to find the best qualified authors to write on the keynote topic; b) after the authors produced their manuscripts on the keynote topic, the manuscript was sent to the offices of the Annual Review of Materials Science; c) when the manuscript arrived at the Annual Review of Materials Science, it was immediately sent to all of the guest 9 Snitzer moves to exclude the letter.
