I too agree with the benefits of graphic organizers and use them daily in my 5th grade science class where 5th grade science is tested at the state level with inclusion of ALL students and with a 76% passing rate!  BUT  I have been teaching 17 years, alternatively certified in th time of whole language and before I was ever in the class I was fully educated on the use and benefits of graphic organizers.  It blows my mind to pieces to think there is anyone out there that doesn't already know about or use them.  For 15 years they have come in the back of every textbook, have been the focus of numerous staff developements and trainings.  How could it be that someone is just finding out about these?  Perhpas you can tell I spent 3 hours on the hot tennis court today and have a teensy headache.  I'm not usually so vocal.  I also teach writing to my homeroom and find graphic organizers the only way to get kids to plan and organize their thoughts.
