Congrats on the placement in the Post - that's great stuff!

Can we get a list of placements we've had together that I can send to sponsors? Just links, not full articles or anything...

If you're talking about the "Who's Talking About LaidOffCampNY" section on the wiki, the last time anything made it up on that page was March 31, almost a month ago, and even those are focused on the unemployed olympics. Do we not have any mentions anywhere between the end of last month and today?
