Better yet, I can just provide the feedback in an email because it is so
light:

Regarding the Topics Blurbs, you guys/gals did a great job; Jim will tell
you he is incredibly picky and can't help rewriting stuff all the time. He
is basically going to rewrite many of the Topics Blurbs, but many of them
he said were perfect the way they are. You guys are done there, thank you!

Regarding Topics tagging of the Reporter Articles: Again, Jim thinks you
guys are doing a great job. The only feedback he had was for us to use less
Topics tag per article. So let's move the guidance going forward from ~3-5
Topics tags per, to 1 or 2, 3 MAX. For the ones you have already done,
generally the first 1-2 tags for each article were spot on. Can we ask that
you go back and just delete the tags that were beyond those first 1-2, 3
max. I guess an alternative would be to just not use more than the first
couple when you go to actually tag the articles in Drupal, but my
housekeeping tendencies would say that going back now and cleaning the
excess tags might take a minimal amount of time and reduce chance of error
etc in the future.

Great job guys and gals, thanks so much!
