While I'm at it...

More than his encyclopedic knowledge of all things mileage and travel, and his incredible ability to dumb down and explain even the most complex redemptions to ensure anyone can take advantage of a good deal, I most respect @Dan for his positivity, mentchlichkeit and the way he deals with "haters".

As someone who put himself out there with a real name and picture, he's had to deal with everything from mild critique to hate-mail in a very public way. Some of the comments on the site and forum are downright creepy. Yet he's handled it all in the classiest way. I think this is a a huge testament to you and how he was raised.

So while we're all singing JJ's praises, L'chaim to you, and keep on enjoying the tremendous nachas I'm sure you are having.
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Your work on the Lufthansa story has been incredible. Not just the tireless reporting, but you were clearly more intrested in getting the story out than getting sweet delicious clicks (I'm sure you still got plenty  :) ).

Without your efforts, this story dies last week with that half baked Hamodia piece. The community owes you a debt of gratitude.

Thank you

The lawyers collecting a fat percentage of the settlement, should give some to Dan, for really moving the needle.
