It's all gone to shit

Teething problems

The only dental problem here is that Michael's too far away for me to knock his teeth out with a monkey wrench. The UTC timestamp confirms my earlier suspicion regarding his whereabouts though.

The unsubscribe option was a mailto link to ptechzoa@gmail.com. Although it's obviously not within the peertechz(publications).com domain, I'm willing to assume that this is part of the same skeevy outfit.

But at least I didn't hesitate to reply.

Dear Michael, or is that Mitesh? Don't lie. Why do you pretend to be based in the USA, when the UTC timestamp of your message (+0530) clearly shows that you're in India? Presumably at Peertechz's Hyderabad sweatshop, churning out all the science that's unfit to publish in a high-quality journal. Your English is certainly better than my Telugu or Urdu. But it isn't great, even for a Californian stoner.
