Can't resist adding to this discussion, with most of which I totally agree.  Maybe one
place to start is in educating the relatively small group of people who are reviewers
of articles for journals.  If they could be pursuaded to follow a  "short" checklist of
what to demand in the presentation of flow data, then the impact would be rapid because
the reviewers are in a position to ask for changes before publication.  If we could
come up with such a short checklist,  then we would need to get editors to distribute
this list to  reviewers along with any paper that includes flow cytometry.
