		<description>thanks for posting it and referring to the Linkedin recommendations

I was actually looking for this letter exactly for the same reason: I had way too many people who barely passed by one of my projects asking to provide a recommendation for their work.

And this is probably the easiest turn down- by chance, I had used a similar but less ironic turn down- nonetheless, I think that this is better!
