Hi Lena,
Just have a second look to the comments made by Geoff.
In fact, it's not only the authors but also the reviewers.
But I wouldn't like to make such a "divisive" message to our community ;)
We all need to be more careful and devote a little bit of time when
engaged in review business.....
Anyway, have a nice day!
Cheers,
Christos.
