Dear Colleague,
Do you know that your comments on a scientific article (which you have reviewed recently) are visible to the world? That article is entitled “Ab-initio Quantum Chemistry Through Computer Algebra” by Ichio Kikuchi and Akihito Kikuchi.
Please look at the following links.
http://stmlibrary.uk/id/eprint/1656/1/Kikuchi642023AJR2P96364.pdf
From this link, you shall read your review and the reply from the authors.
We are the authors of the article that has passed your review. We found your name there and wrote to you.
First, we are grateful for your having given your precious time to do the review of our article.
However, Dr, your comments are quite insulting and have infuriated us. They brought us nothing useful.
As you might not have read our reply to your review, we show you our letter to the editor.
================ ==================================================
Dear Colleague,
We corrected the manuscript and sent you the new version (ManuscriptVersion2.pdf) with the reply to the reviewers’ comments (reply/zip).
We have done almost all of the corrections according to the comments, except one point.
One of the reviewers ( DAN in the comment at **DAN**.doc ) requested us to remove the sentences that show important references in the introduction.
He said that they are in the abstract and we should remove them.
Apparently this lad has unwittingly confused the abstract and the introduction.
So we neglect this erroneous request, sorry! If we obeyed him, it would undermine the contents of the paper!
If he intentionally, without rational reasons, requested us to remove all of the references which we prepared, and if he requested us to fill the blank with references which he designated,
it might be an act motivated by some evil will; it might be a transgression of researchers’ ethics.
The compliance office watching on him shall listen to the reports from the world.
With Best Regards,
Akihito Kikuchi
=======================================================================
We are perplexed at your insane comments because you are such a simpleton that you cannot tell Abstract from Introduction. (If your students know that you have such poor English skills, they shall scorn you…) Your foolish review made us suspicious of your qualification to keep a seat as a professor at a university… Have you spent enough time for review? Is it not that you have demanded the removal of the references that are located above your head? You slandered us that we have done the reinvention of wheels as if you were the most distinguished scholar in the world. We were dismayed by your slander, but we picked up your identity, and we have seen through your works; they eloquently prove that you are only a teacher with very limited experience and mediocre qualifications. We cannot keep ourselves from bursting into laughter, because this anonymous reviewer is found to be an ignorant dwarf.
Out of kindness, I advise you to behave gentlemanly when you are requested to give a review.
(1) To be polite. Not to be scornful to the authors, even if they are nameless.
(2) Not to be arrogant. Do not tyrannize over the authors. You cannot perfectly be anonymous. (Is it not that you have been haughty and malicious since you believed that you conceal your identity? But your conviction is groundless, for we found you immediately, thanks to the open review policy.)
(3) Spend enough time.
(4) The abstract and the introduction are different.
(5) If you do not understand the contents, confess it honestly. The authors shall explain the details if you ask them politely. First of all, you have the option to decline the review.
That is all which we must tell you.
With Best Regards,
Ichio Kikuchi and Akihito Kikuchi
