During the last month, after writing about it on this blog and a couple of Yahoo Scouting groups, and recently talking about it during the PTC Media audio podcast <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ptcmedia.net\/\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">A Leader&#8217;s Campfire<\/span><\/a>, there have been quite a few visits to the site and listens to the song. I checked out the site today and it shows a total of 327 listens. That is a 36% increase of the amount of listens during a one month period. While I do not take all the credit for that increase, I would like to think that I helped a little to get the word out about it.<\/p>\n<p>Now that some of you have listened to the song, I would like to hear what you thought about it.
