Also, this is your reminder that I've put up your comments about me from
this poll (tense changed to make it fit with what I'd planned) to my
UserInfo. Check it out under the Awards section! More comments welcome. Almost required for some of you! Go fill out the poll if you haven't already (or want to change your answer, that's okay too).
