Do you know that calling editors/publishers/agents dirty names is never dirty enough? Did you ever try getting in touch with one of these super-humans? sons-of-god? the-gods-themselves? If you did - you know, if you didn't - don't. They have this famous slush pile, where anything that's less than famous for the last 3 years gets slushed, and your chances with them (unless by blackmail/marriage/bribe/brute-force) are nil. They don't even try. So high...
