For Gardner Dozois


Thanks are due to Marianne for naming the Pequod,
undifferentiating cells, and seeding a stagnant drop of
water, to Jack Dann for the scripture from Pushkin, to Bob
Walters for supplying plesiosaurs and designing WyethтАЩs
vacuum suit, to Greg Frost and Tim Sullivan for last-minute
advice, to Tom Purdom for breakfast beer, to Gardner
 Dozois for the usual reasons, and to Virginia Kidd for
patience. Financial support was provided by the M. C.
Porter Endowment for the Arts. And a special debt of
gratitude is owed Mario Rups, Ed Bryant, and Don Keller for
irritating remarks.
