As a lawyer I would have expected you to understand that certain documents need to be written in set styles, and obey certain rules.  Have you published anything (this isn't meant to be derogatory, it's a geniune request), I am positive you must have done so.  When you did your citations would have had to be correctly arranged, and many other rules obeyed.  Law suits are written up in a set style, and no one would dream of simply scribbling a note and saying check out this website, and expect to be taken seriously.  So why do you expect a scientific journal to accept whatever you send them?  Follow the procedures, then you have a right to complain if nothing happens.

I'm not going to say I know much about the science but I made this suggestion a few days ago (in the article page).  It is certainly a lot shorter, and I think a little more polite.  What do you think Andy

Is the 250 limit for the body text - the 'meat' of the letter?  Or everything?  [[User:RobCross|RobCross]] 11:42, 25 July 2008 (EDT)
