[quote=Anonymous]Dear Sir,

Thanks for writing and for your interest in our journal.  I regret your critique that our journals findings are tendentious.

Please allow me to explain. It is custom for scientists and publications like ours to report the findings of the scientific process. It may not be the government's view of events.

The process is open to critique and could indeed be viewed as biased, but we have used this process since The Enlightenment and it has stood the test of time. In fact it has brought great progress and innovation to our peoples.  It may be comforting for you to know, that failed or flawed experiments do not typically progress or succeed because they do not yield any pragmatic or commercial results.

I understand your frustration. You are in good company. Plenty of governments, for example churches, have attacked scientists when their findings were oppositional to its official beliefs and positions.  We do not concern ourselves with these matters.

Please send along the criminal or civil codes that you claim are relevant to our editorial board.  We will pass it along to our lawyers, with whom we try not to associate.  Good day. [/quote]
