Guidance for agents, or anyone making cold-contact

- please be brief
- please say upfront what action you would like from me
- please say why I specifically can help you
- I like to interact with people who identify as high agency. If this is you, please say so
- the correct form of address is "Dear Professor Stafford". I don't really mind, but it shows attention to detail
- I don't have the funds for PhD students, so I can't help you there.
