+\opening{To the editors of Physical Review,}
+
+We wish to appeal your decision on our manuscript LZ16835, \emph{Complex
+complex landscapes}, which received a single referee report.
+
+
+We believe that the criticisms that the referee addresses to our paper are
+not entirely justified (and above all, difficult to answer).  We have, however,
+clarified as much as possible the parts that the referee found trying.
+
+The referee is particularly worried that we have cited articles that are not
+themselves sufficiently cited, so we thought that it may be useful at this
+point to propose a set of referees that are beyond suspicion of incompetence or
+uncitedness:
+
+\begin{tabular}{ll}
+  G Ben Arous  & Courant \\ 
+  M Berry      & Bristol\\
+  Daniel Fisher& Stanford\\
+  T Lubensky   & Penn\\
+  M Moore      & Manchester \\
+  E Witten     & IAS Princeton
+\end{tabular}
+
+We have also added  some very first results of the geometric implications for a
+random complex landscape of our calculation, something we plan to expend on in
+a future full article.
+
+
+\closing{Sincerely,}
+
