Thanks to Howard Morhaim for finding another project for me to see to completion, and to Anne Groell for helping me to get it there.
My gratitude to Chet Williamson for a great story, and to Jeff Osier for a lesson in the fine art of appreciating dark music and sending examples to go with it.
Paula Guran, Stephen Spruill, Beth Massie, Don Kinney, Alexa deMonterice, and John Platt: In your own way, each of you has held my hand and helped me dance a little through life in this fall of 1995. Words do not exist that are big enough to express my love and gratitude, and that would make you understand how special each of you is.
As time passes and I move into my second year in cyberspace, I learn more and more that the “GEnie gang” is a wellspring of ongoing friendship, support, and humor. You guys are all different, and all great.
Special appreciation and love, always, to Don Vander-Sluis.
