While so many of you have made my job enjoyable and very fruitful I would like to extend special thanks to a few people for their support and encouragement - to Yigal Arens, Valerie Gregg and Eduard Hovy of USC Information Sciences Institute, and Larry Brandt of the National Science Foundation - thank you.
