I would like to thank my son, Abram, who is a beginning Mac OS X

programmer himself, for always asking quesions. I would also like to

thank my wife, Donna, for not only encouraging me but also for making it

possible for me to pursue the things I want to do. And inally, I would like

to thank my daughter, Amanda, who keeps me focused on the things that

really mater in life.
