[Ahh... Much better. I don't have to yell at anyone for not filling in the
'date submitted' field this week. Amazing. I also noticed that a
higher-than-normal percentage of the people submitting this week used the
web-based submission form. That I like, because the Perl script then does
most of the formatting work, which means less work for me. :]
