Riddle me this, pilots

Chip youre a good man, many controllers (well the ones I know here in
the northeast at least) tend to just say "f**king pilot" and move on

While we are (at least tangentially) on the subject of good controllers...

I was picking my way through a line of thunderstorms west of Huntsville a
few weeks ago. I have stormscope, but no radar. In and out of IMC, and the
stormscope is starting to look like a video game screen. The controller
(Memphis Center, I believe) was unbelievably helpful. He was working a dozen
or so planes, offering quick deviations left and right, while at the same
time responding to calls for info from pilots like me. I ended up (with his
blessing, of course) descending 10,000 feet in steep turns to avoid a storm
ahead of me, turning 50 degrees north to go under the clouds in a gap he and
I agreed was there, and was past the weather in ten minutes.

If I wanted to commend his work to his supervisor, how would I do so? He did
a great job - every handoff was accompanied by "123.45, Great job today!
Thanks"
