 People say KNOPPIX is so great, but Debian just sucks without being
 aware that KNOPPIX is in fact based on Debian.  

Did somebody asked/lobbied Klaus Knopper to perhaps add a 'Powered by
Debian' button/image to the boot-screen/background image/boot messages?
I think Klaus has sometimes mixed feelings when it comes to Debian as an
organization and stuff, but if approached in a diplomatic way, I believe
he might add it. That might give us some more (and rightfully)
publicity.

I could probably meet him during Linux World Expo in Frankfurt in late
October/early November (if I've finished my exams by that time), so I
could ask him personally, if that helps.
