Many thanks for _YOUR_ involvement in this; what went in came from
your initiative.  I saw it; reasonably decent coverage.

Obviously they're not the _most_ clued folk around; there's certainly
_enough_ links around for people to find us one way or another.  We could
wish for better, but I'm not sure there's too much hope of that.  They
did give us a "moment of glory," which is about as much as we can hope
for.
