Thank you for sharing your intellect--and your patience.

Thank you to my family, for still claiming me. My friends--the writers and the Normals--who never shun me for dirty hair. Julie, for your laughter. Jeff Murphy, my favorite secular soldier, for all things military. Eric Wilson, who pointed the way to Kerioth.

And to my God, who shows me great things
