I'm glad someone's pushing this forward.  But, I'm also very curious how
you came to be submitting this series.  Is this a team effort between
you, the And[iy]s and Chang?  Or, were you just trying to help out?

I was hoping to see some acknowledgement of this situation in the cover
letter but didn't see anything.
