Bad Queries: a deconstruction

[cgmod]

Normally I wouldn’t ever do this, but we received a query today that was so abysmal I was shocked at how many mistakes were made in just 66 words. Seriously, I was honestly flabbergasted. So in the hope that some writers might find helpful hints of what not to do, I’m going to deconstruct it. The name and email of the submitter will be omitted.

Reminds of that person that offered to be a Beta for someone at RS and managed to make 3 mistakes in a 5 word sentence. She/he didn't get the job.
