Wow, who caused this to happen?  Thank you! Thank you!

This sounds great! Can we get them translated?  Anyone (Sean) know how to
approach similar magazines around the world?
Maybe the editors of Log In has contacts.

Is there a call to action included?  What would we want teachers and school
administrators to do once they have tried Sugar?

Cheers,
Caroline
