To Teresa van den Barselaar: For an outstanding job of organizing, crystallizing, and editing the material for this book in such a short time! My readers should thank her as well, as Im sure you will instantly notice the difference between this book and my past ones.

To David Okenquist for relentless efforts to dig for the best and most accurate research. His charts alone are more than worth the price of this book.
