+    publishing system with Cheetah as the star. Site-wide, we're currently
+    serving an average of 68K pages (198K 'hits') per day, with the Cheetah'd
+    pages doing more than 65% of that traffic. Our web traffic has doubled in
+    the past 6 months, and that growth curve shows no sign of slowing down.<br /><br />
+
+    We have found Cheetah to be a gloriously flexible and powerful
+    technology. Functions within templates allowed us to do far more elegant
+    structured programming at the document level. Being able to use templates as
+    python classes, importing constants and other goodies directly from our
+    middleware python code really lets them act as first class code members
