I think we should create a "Thank You" page which is similar to the Donors page, but in contradistinction to it does not thank people for help to the Foundation per se, but is a way to thank people on behalf of individual PIFs. I tried to get the White House to do this, and they were unresponsive, probably out of their very conservative nature in public communications. What I imagine is a system by which a PIF, let's say Ben Balter version 3, whomever that is, sends us an email saying "Please thank Billy Bob Programmer for: open source code contributions to the Asteroid Challenge Project" or "Please thank Captain Smith for providing a room for the Coast Guard Workshop", etc.
Basically I think thanking people is the most important thing that we can do.
