Acknowledgments
</a>
</H2>
<P>Writing a book is similar to entering a long-term relationship with an obsessive
partner. Throughout the nine months it took to write this book, life went on: job changes, births,
deaths, and even a hurricane. Throughout it all, the book demanded constant attention.
Therefore, I'd like to thank the people who made it possible to focus on the book to the exclusion of
nearly everything else. My wife, Deb, and son, Matt, supported and encouraged me throughout,
even when I was little more than a reclusive houseguest hunched over the computer in the
study. Additionally, Deb acted as my editor and indexer, eventually reading the book completely
three times! Thank you both.
</P>
<P>Thanks also to Marc Ewing and Erik Troan, RPM architects extraordinaire. Without
their programming savvy, RPM wouldn't be the elegant tool it is. Without their boundless
patience, my many questions would have gone unanswered, and this book would have been much
less than it is now. I hope you find this book a worthy companion to your programming
handiwork.
</P>
<P>Rik Faith provided some much-needed information about PMS and PM, two of RPM's
ancestors. Thank you! A tip of the RPM hat also goes to Kitty Jarrett and the rest of the crew
at Sams. This book wouldn't have been what it is today without your involvement.
</P>
<P>Finally, a great big thank you goes to Jessica and the gang at L'il Dino Subs, Jennifer and
her crew at the Cary Barnes & Noble coffee shop, and Mom and her "kids" at Schlotzsky's Deli
in Durham. If all of you hadn't let me sit around writing for hours, this book wouldn't be
nearly as fat as it is. And neither would I!
