#HablemosDeCiencia con Fefo

En ocasiones pasadas comentamos sobre los ególatras que presumen su futura adscripción al ridículo libro autobiográfico Who’s who in America (or Latin America, or the UNIVERSE!).

Para que no se quede en duda sobre la fidelidad de mis comentarios (o sea, para que no crean que me muero de la envidia) les comparto el siguiente correo que acabo de recibir (To do list: i) correr al Comentario para que me entrevisten, ii) comprar botellas de espumoso para una celebración nice en compañía de gente bonita, iii) remodelar mi guardarropa ):

No se confundan compañeros, este libro es una mera compilación de información sobre personas necesitadas de atención. Como bien argumentaba uno de los ególatras locales, no les cobran por poner sus datos, pero díganme incrédulos lectores, quién? quién va a comprar un libro con una lista  con un montón de nombres?? QUIÉN? Solamente los que pidieron estar en ella, así podrán tenerla en un aparador en sus oficinas o convenientemente ubicada en la mesita de centro de la estancia de su casa!.
