I blog about Ubuntu Linux - can I request a review for inclusion of my content on The Fridge

Hi,

I blog about Ubuntu Linux at
http://www.kzenpragmaticist.org/search/label/Ubuntu (my most recent entry is
quoted below).

Can I / how do I request a review for inclusion of my content on The Fridge?

Cheers,

-dave
