Just wanted to take a quick moment to extend some much earned gratitude to the very tech-smart Tony Rickey and the master of thematic blog design, Unlearned Hand, for their generous contributions to the making of De Novo. I may as well, and just as accurately, have said "the very tech-smart Unlearned Hand and the master of thematic design, Tony Rickey," but I'm afraid my policy of "one epithet per person per post" makes that impossible.

Thanks guys!
