I’m very grateful to David Phelps, Valerie Dean, Sunnara Vivian and Bob Winfield for reading, listening to me read and giving helpful responses to the text. Big thanks Mike Munro Turner for your skill and patience in building this website and making the impossible happen. Thanks to everyone who has encouraged me during the seven years that this project has taken to fruition. And finally, a big thank you to Life.
