![]() ![]() One perplexing problem was dealing with suggestions # 13-28 by Reviewer B. We agree with you that the paper is much better this way. Thus, you suggested that we shorten the manuscript by 5 pages, and we were able to accomplish this very effectively by altering the margins and printing the paper in a different font with a smaller typeface. Other suggestions were implemented, however, and the paper has improved and benefited. For example, if (as reviewer C suggested) several of my recent ancestors were indeed drawn from other species, it is too late to change that. Some of the reviewers' comments we couldn't do anything about. Indeed, we have mailed letter bombs to four or five people we suspected of being reviewer C, so if you send the manuscript back to them the review process could be unduly delayed. ![]() Still, from this batch of reviewers, C was clearly the most hostile, and we request that you not ask him or her to review this revision. We do understand that, in view of the misanthropic psychopaths you have on your editorial board, you need to keep sending them papers, for if they weren't reviewing manuscripts they'd probably be out mugging old ladies or clubbing baby seals to death. After all, its fairly clear that your reviewers are less interested in details of scientific procedure than in working out their personality problems and sexual frustrations by seeking some kind of demented glee in the sadistic and arbitrary exercise of tyrannical power over hapless authors like ourselves who happen to fall into their clutches. I shall skip the usual point-by-point description of every single change we made in response to the critiques. We even changed the goddamn running head! Hopefully we have suffered enough by now to satisfy even you and your bloodthirsty reviewers. We have again rewritten the entire manuscript from start to finish. Enclosed is our latest version of MS# XX-XXX-XX-, that is, the re-re-re-revised revision of our paper. ![]()
