Not all the correspondence to a top science journal contains top science. Some of it is very odd indeed:
"Science journals attract some similarly odd stuff. I keep a small collection in my desk. One writer refers to a 'G'-shaped pattern in his fingerprint.
G, he points out — it usually seems to be 'he' — is the seventh letter of the alphabet. There are seven seas on Earth and seven seals in the Bible, and there is a chain of shops called 7-Eleven. Which proves... well, I'm not sure what, but he seems to think he's onto something."
