Acknowledgments
Knowledge is based on many different facets what you know, knowing where information can be found, and who you know. The information in this book is a combination of all these facets. The data sources referenced in this book include references to people, URLs, and other books. But much of the knowledge that is in this book comes from very smart people. The people listed in this "acknowledgment" section did not necessarily participate in the writing of this book, but have influenced and guided me in my life that has culminated in this work. First and foremost I need to thank my wife for helping me with the book and providing some of the editing throughout the various chapters. Next I want to thank Johnny Speed, a great son that not only provided his support but also edited various chapters in this book. I thank my daughter Katherine for tolerating me during the months that I worked on this book. Next I want to thank my mother, Lillian Speed, for teaching me to "think big." Thanks to Ed Speed for the inspiration to keep publishing.
