“A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends.”

—    Friedrich Nietzsche

OK, I’m not making any claims about my ability to write. But, with some help from my friends, I think I have created a document that is of some use. Many thanks to:

Rick Blaine

Richard Reid

Viktor Nacht and Bettie Paige

Ted Forrester

“Cacarulo”

Nina for putting up with me

My mother for telling me Blackjack can’t be beaten. I had to prove her wrong.

My software users, who keep me informed of every change in the world

Don Schlesinger, in particular, for his heroic editing job
