(And for shuttling me back & forth to UM when I didn't want to take the bus) My Dad: For letting me use the Citation, for the late night talks, for the support, and for listening. My friends at Blair: For putting up with me as I described the story (again and again and again and again and again....) To Jeff, Kevin, and Aaron: "You can step into the same river twice, but you cannot lead a fish to ride a bicycle." -- Rev. Xmos You guys know what I mean ;) To the original writers of _Undocumented Features_: for making my first year of college a much more fun one than it might have been, and showing me that imagination is a thing to be shared! (It's all YOUR fault!! ;) To the gang on #Eyrie and #anime!: Thanks for showing interest! I'm glad to see there'll be _some_ audience for this thing... To Jim Henson: "That's the way it is around this place. The fantasy always wins." -- Jim Henson You will be missed. To anyone else: "I write because I am personally amused by what I do, and if other people are amused by it, then it's fine. If they're not, then that's also fine." -- Frank Zappa But most of all: To Aerianne. Trevor: I would like to thank the following people for their support. The mediums in which they delivered it may have varied, but all were important. -My parents, for teaching me to respect skill in all its various forms; -Philip, for giving me the chance to be part of this long, strange trip; -All my ex-girlfriends (especially the ones featured in this story) for dealing with me when I was being insane; -Susan and Becky, for helping me to finally make a decision in my life :); -All those people (too numerous to list here) who stood by me and supported me when I was at my lowest points; -Ann, Lynne, Arch, Christa, Marybeth, Jonah, Pam, Dave, Ray, Chala, Tracy, Renee, Argo, and Michael, for making me feel a part of something bigger than myself; -Shawn, the older version of myself, for teaching me so much about life and all its hidden secrets; -Joshua and whoever my other guide is, for looking out for me from the other side of the mirror.
