None of this would have been possible without...

It's taken a while, possibly too long, to bring form to this idea. As excited and motivated as I feel on some days, on others I've been completely derailed by doubts and distractions. It's in those times that the thought, comment or action of certain individuals is just what I needed to keep plowing ahead.

I know some of the people mentioned here will be surprised to see their names. A few I haven't talked to in years. Others I only superficially know. And some I don't know at all except by reputation.

No matter my connection to them, each of these individuals has encouraged me in some lasting, positive way. And for that I thank them most heartily.
