I do not think it is just wounded amour propre to be negative about an article which happens to fail to cite Mi Amayzin Contribushionz to historiography of particular subject at particular period, when no-one else's relevant work published in the area since c. 1996 (of which there has been quite a bit) is cited either.
Just sayin'. FAIL.

As aforementioned, my opticians has moved, over the course of years, from round the corner to several blocks away to a Tube stop away to 2 Tube stops with arduous change between lines away, as firms amalgamate and move, stepping every further westwards until in 20 years time I shall probably be having to go to Penzance.
I was ravenous by the time I finally got out.
Also, o opticians, why no customers' loo?
