Dear Mr. Wahl,
I do not need to be reminded that Duke considers itself to be a general journal with very high standards. You need to be reminded that you've found my own work to be not up to these standards, and more than once.

I do not review for journals that would not publish my own work.

Sincerely,
Leonid Positselski


Dear Professor Positselski,

My Editor <...> has suggested that you could give us your cnsidered opinion on a Duke submission, "<...>", by <...>. I attach what he wrote me (as well as the paper itself). I remind you that Duke is a general journal with very high standards, and a current backlog (plus "too many" good submissions).

Sincerely,
Jonathan Wahl
