Jeanne, I am so sorry that you're not even able to enjoy what should be a NOTEABLE win, not merely an afterthought. First, let me say CONGRATULATIONS! You go girl! You totally rock, and you should be so proud of yourself. I wrote a story sometime ago about being proud to sing your praises, when no one else seems to give a damn, and you have every right to be recognized and commended for your achivement - you and all the other honorable mentions. I suspect, if Medium really starts examining how they conducted themselves, you may be receiving a more public apology than your winning announcement was. CHEERS WINNER!
