I agree.

It was a great success! I would like to think that
our demonstrated ability to consistently cooperate to
compile the elset files, week after week, despite the
100 per person per day limit, was part of the reason
they finally relented on that limit.
Jeff, you and Richard Fredrick and Mike McCants are
why this all worked. You, in particular, stepped up
to the bat, got us organized, kept us in line :-),
and all three of you put in a *tremendous* amount of
work behind the scenes -- week after week after week.
Hear-hear! Splendidly done! Thank-you. :-)
