Epigraph

Dedication

For Groucho Marx, who I did not know personally.

For Joe Smith, of Smith & Dale, whom I know only tangentially

For Diane Dickey, without whose encouragement in this project I would have impaled myself on a rubber spatula, and withut whose research assistance this tome would have been a three-page tome...

And without whom there is very little in the world. ARA VOS PREC.
