While this has indeed been a solo project, no man really travels alone. I would like to take this opportunity to thank those who have encouraged and assisted me along the way.
Karl Kagarise, who taught me the joys and pain of backgammon. I窶冤l never forget those crazy all night sessions. If you ever read this, call me collect. (Special thanks to the user that put me in touch with Karl.)
Tom Weaver, Carole Joy Cole, Ron Karr, Bill Kennedy, Danny Kleinman, Roy Friedman, Bill Davis, Kit Woolsey, Bill Robertie, Marc Gray, Michael Darooge, Ray Glaeser and others for critiquing my program and giving me many helpful suggestions and providing moral and technical support.
My family and friends for taking an interest and listening to my obsessive rambling. More specifically Edwina Foulke, Roland Johnson, Michael Johnson, Ramona Rodriguez, Ben Dubin, Adam Winkler, Gary Kremen, Clint Walker, and to the most patient and understanding of them all: Cheryl Hoffman.
The Campbell Club players who conspired to teach me humility and sharpen my game in the process.
