ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Many thanks to Will Amato, who pushed me into seeing the value of these tales,
and for massaging the site into shape. A tip of the hat to the wonderfully talented
Dave, Jeff and Ian who were so generous with their time for an old friend. I also
appreciate the kind folks who wrote blurbs for much less than their normal fees.
And a special shout out to Pete Sepenuk for his recording expertise.
