Quite.

Maybe there's some reason that stuff is easier (for VSI) on Twitter
than it is on the corporate website? If it takes a day or two to go
through Legal for the website, fair enough, but one then maybe ought
to wonder why equivalent clearance isn't required for Twitter, which
in the right wrong circumstances can go further faster than most web
sites can ever hope for. Or maybe it's to do with content management
systems (can't say CMS round here as it's got another meaning)? 

Anyway, well done VSI, keep up the good work. Don't let us grumblers
(me included) get you down. Do keep getting the message out there.

Have a lot of fun.
