ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This work would not have been possible without the advice and support of the Yahoo! Bludhaven group and the posters who patiently shared their wisdom with me at ffr_discussion . Since aliases and pseudonyms are a large part of online life, I regret that I am unable to credit everyone by name, but I would still like to thank: Mary Brokaw, Char Edwards, Syl Francis, Bluejay Silver, Xenith, archaeologist_d, cat63, rhiannon_s, celestlyn, in_excelsis_dea, deepbluemermaid, flo_nelja, ozqueen, vampirenaomi, the_physicist, yamx, beesandbrews, lionessvalenti, r_dahlia, sir2moons, lady_ganesh, mimiheart, jenna_marianne, edibleflowers, mithen, tinpra, and casusfere.

A special round of applause goes out to my beta-readers, aiyokusama, Kathy B, dungeonwriter, and PJ Zatken, and to Wei-Ping Gao, Nevena Mancheva, Chris Vitti, and Adam Yasui of the Seneca Tech Comm class of 2012 for reviewing my first draft.
