Modern person will not read so long text without serious reason.

Even will not start.

But even if starts. then will not complete.

Only  VERY  INTERESTING  text has a chance to be read to the end.

But this one is  DEFINITELY  not the case.


It is not because I am so bad person.

It is because  IT  IS  a  LAW.


Have a nice day (!)
