After politely telling me to basically get lost I asked him to look at my late 18th century (1771) hand. He doubled down on the 17th century:
I saw it, but I don't see a close affinity. George Sakellarios was a
well-known author and translator of the end of the 18th c.
My sense of the Mar Saba ms. is that it rather belongs to a 17th. c. ms.
That's it. I cannot deal with this problem anymore. And i am not
interested in knowing if Jesus was gay or not...
Good luck,

I am a kind of salesperson in my line of work so I am never sure whether I care about any of these subjects or am just interested (or even enjoy) the act of getting around a 'no.' If someone tells me 'no' or 'please go away' there is a 100 percent chance I will very politely ask - almost beg them - to answer one more question. It's very bizarre. Then they have to figure out a motive for my interest in this letter. I swear it's just an excuse to probe the minds of really smart people.
