Opening up the black box called ``Physical Review''

How do you get a paper accepted in PRA or PRL? What happens once you've submitted a manuscript to one or the other and how are referees chosen? What is PHYSICS and what does it aim to achieve? Why has PRL reinvigorated its stringent criteria and what kind of impact has it had so far? These and other questions will be discussed in a presentation about facts, style, statistics, history, referees, authors and ``hot' papers, which will hopefully culminate in a lively debate about the imminent changes in the landscape of scientific publishing.
