Many people have
influenced or helped me over the years, but somehow these
folks stand out as having invested themselves in my work,
taken a chance on me, or in some way taught me something
you cannot learn elsewhere.
- Carol Wilson - who
'pulls numbers from the air' in her algebra class
and encouraged my combinatorial studies
- Kurt Nelson -
computer science 299 independent study mentor who
said staying in the same job 5 years is
uninteresting
- Rick Stober - got
me onto my feet in the computer industry
after I left the Coast Guard
- Keith Pollard -
brought me over to the 'dark side' as a
CTOS manager
- Kit Parrish - the
GSA manager that pulled me from the warehouse and
put me in front of a CTOS workstation
- Brad Bernard - long
time friend and second Entropia grid
operator after me
- Brent Haines - runs
Reality Networks and Grendelnet, hosted my
servers, fixed them when they crashed, and much
more.
- George Woltman -
Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search guy who let
me springboard Entropia
- Sharon Telljohn -
tolerated years of my expenses and absences
starting Entropia, which she named

& Gene, Matt & Dave - the Aurigin data
