I want to thank my wife, Polly, for all her support while writing this book. She was so understanding about all the weekends and events I had to miss to get it finished. I also want to thank everybody on the various GIS List Servers who helped me when I ran into issues to determine if they were bugs or something I was just doing wrong. Lastly, thanks to everyone at eGIS Associates who helped take up the slack as I worked on this book.
