Encourage this by submitting your papers more  to society journals (ACM,
IEEE,  etc)   than  to  publishers'   journals.   Especially  avoid "The
International Journal  of  X" for  all  X.   The price  of profit-making
journals  is  shocking.  The  RPI library  spends  3  times as  much  on
subscriptions as on new books.

If you want theoretical geometry papers, some journals and conferences
are:

Symposium on Computational Geometry

J. Discrete and Computational Geometry (YAPJ = yet another publisher's j!)

Symp. on Foundation of CS has one or two papers a year on geometry

ditto Symp. on Theory of Computing
