Dear Dr ***,

Your manuscript, "***", has now been seen by two referees, whose
reports I enclose. As you will see, while both referees acknowledge that the
topic of *** is important, they also raise a number of criticisms that prevent
us from offering to publish the paper. Specifically, their comments suggest
to us that your findings would not represent the sort of conceptual advance
that would be likely to substantially influence our understanding of *** in general,
which we feel would be necessary for the paper to appeal to the interests of
researchers from other disciplines. We are forced to conclude, therefore,
that a revised version of your manuscript would find a more suitable outlet
in a specialist journal and so we will be closing the file.

I am very sorry that we cannot respond more positively,
but I nevertheless hope that you will find the referees' comments of use.

Yours sincerely,

Dr ***

Natureって、査読が世界一キッチリしてると思ったのに。。。
どっちの査読者も、感想文みたいなletter書いてる。
Technical validityに問題はないだろ〜
と反論したかったですが、リジェクトなので査読者への回答も書けません(;;
Scienceに出しても、同じ査読者に当たってリジェクトかな。。。
