-- I sent this note of appreciation to the webmaster but the mailbox was full, so I'm posting it here --

Hi Mr. Kansas,

I want to thank you for making my post about THROWBACK into a sticky-post. I was
trying to figure out why my web site gets way more hits via your message board than
any place else and realized it was because you had done that. I feel guilty spamming
sites like yours but it's the only way I can publicize this thing, and believe me,
nobody else is doing any PR on it's behalf!

The story didn't sell as well as I had hoped but that's okay. I'm not in it for
the money (obviously, since I give it away for free to anyone who wants to read
it) I just thought we needed more stories about our great sport.

I appreciate your doing this and I understand that at some point you'll have to
"unsticky" it because people will be sick of it.

Thanks again, much appreciated back here in New Jersey!
