We believe that the referee's overall criticisms of our paper are not entirely justified (and above all, difficult to answer). We have, however, submitted a revised manuscript clarifying the specific aspects that the referee found trying. The referee seems particularly worried that we have cited articles that are not themselves sufficiently cited, so we thought it may be useful propose a set of referees that are beyond suspicion of incompetence or uncitedness: \begin{tabular}{ll} G Ben Arous & Courant \\ M Berry & Bristol\\ Y Fyodorov & King's College London \\ Daniel Fisher& Stanford\\ T Lubensky & U Penn\\ M Moore & Manchester \\ E Witten & IAS Princeton \end{tabular} We have also pointed out 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. Let us conclude by remarking that, although it is probably true that this paper will not make more than one hundred citations next year, we are confident that it will still be considered relevant in ten years time. \closing{Sincerely,} \vspace{1em} \end{letter} \end{document}
