ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Thanks to everyone who made this book possible. Gerry Hunt­man of IFWG for taking on the series after two books. Noel the Editor, for diligent Google-Fu.

For the world at large for giving me enough material to fill a library of books about the curious nature of the Universe. And to the readers, particularly the ones I have never met, who were under no obligation to buy the book, but did anyway.

Of course, if you got your copy through a book pirating site, may you have a long and utterly tedious existence with absolutely nothing but regret and adult diapers at the end of it.
