The premise of this article is not convincing: a) Since the time of the ancient library of Alexandria, "the information has been out there". Maybe on a different scale, but since the beginning of science it has always been cheaper to build an information repository (library, web server, etc.) than a university. It has always been the case that the university professors provided added value by guiding students through their field of knowledge. b) Where does the information, which is out there, come from?

Who exactly is Robert Reid again?? Please tell me he has more to offer than a manufactured sound bite.
