Good jumpseat karma rocks!

I wouldn't consider it tooting your own horn - I think it is great!
I hope rather that your story will be taken as more of an inspiration to HELP out pilots instead of beating each other down. I'm not even a professional pilot and I can't believe what I see on this forum so often. Pilots **attacking** each other - over stuff that they either can't control or just stuff that doesn't even matter (reference recent thread about AIRSPEED betwen two aircraft)! Good job cencal......I hope more act in the same way.
