Just one comment on your paper. If you haven't already submitted, perhaps in Section 3.4 on the optical spectroscopy, you can indicate at the end of the first paragraph that the SINGS optical spectroscopy and emission-line measurements (fluxes, EWs, etc.) will be presented in Moustakas et al. (2006, in preparation). The Moustakas & Kennicutt (2006) reference describes the observing technique we used for my thesis, but not the SINGS data themselves. --Done. Some referess don't like such 'forward referencing', but I don't mind.
