If you want to hear back from any organization, you’ve got to write it on lawyer letterhead.



Which indeed doesn't work for journals because publishing wrong research isn't (and shouldn't be) illegal...


I just mean, it’s so easy to ignore inquiries and I’ve found that if you ever get ignored and need to be heard, a lawyer’s letterhead attracts attention.

I agree with the legal issue you put forth.


Yes, but the social engineering aspect of that trick might still work.
