CLICK-AND-ENTER ETIQUETTE

The folks at Luxury Link (www.luxurylink.com) put on a good show as far as contest-entry décorum goes. This is a sweepstakes you can enter daily. (I'm positively dreaming of St. Lucia.) The service is impressive. When you click to submit your entry, Luxury Link conveys its appreciation on the screen as such:

THANK YOU

Seconds later, an email lands in your queue, with the following subject line and body.

In a world where, sadly, "no problem" is replacing "you're welcome," this is welcome comportment indeed.
