Unanimous
Before Arthur Conan Doyle became famous, life was something of a struggle for the future author of the celebrated Sherlock Holmes stories. Once, after a year particularly short of financial profit, he was called on to fill out his income tax return, and did the job in an extremely half-heart-ed manner. The sketchy report was neither complete nor accurate, and as a result, the Government office returned the document to him, marked, “Not Satisfactory.” A few days later they got it back, with further notation : “I heartily agree with you. Doyle.”
