A thank you from the researcher who was looking for help

I am pleased to provide the following "thank you" from Marianne Chu of the University of Nottingham to all those who participated in her recent on-line survey about use of prostate cancer social networks: "I am four participants shy of my top limit (and 76 over what I expected to get!) .... Thanks very much for all your help, I truly appreciate it."

I would add my personal thanks to people for participating in this survey.
