Many thanks to those who submitted their payment/fees for Hurricane and McHurricane‚Ñ¢ and especially those who took the time to offer suggestions and criticism. I particularly want to thank Andy Gariepi and crew at Zedcor, and Ross Lambert, Chris Stazny and all the rest of the crew at Ariel Publishing for their tireless efforts. Without them this program would never have happened (they may wish it hadn't, hah!).
