Good point. Maybe you could get by with just scraping and bowing.

"Dear Luminary,

Or, alternatively:

"Dear Sir or Madam,
We are an extremely exclusive testing firm only interested in the opinions of the finest people. At least one of our a-list, educated and refined clients has suggested that you may be worthy talking to.

Seriously Susan, maybe you could offer to acknowledge their contribution to the web site on an online "donor board" page?
