*Dear All,*

Elsevier introduces a new metric called "h5 Index". Almost every year the publishing industry introduces new metrics. Maybe for business profit or really they worry about research output. Can any metrics measure the *"Intellectual Output"* of an author? I am not sure about it. Dear All, what is your opinion about metrics?
