First of all thanks go to Rahul Singh and Manudea Dumetri. They introduced me to Rainbow the web software that made it possible to create this site, supported me when I had trouble and opened my eyes to the world of CMS/Portals.
That concludes the credit for the websites. These following credits are a cursory way of thanking those who influenced me the most in life, since after all this website is a presentation of my life to people on the web who want to know.
Major thanks to Dr. Admiral Roger Gilbertson for shaping my entire life. When few realized the full extent of my potential, not even me, he encouraged me to pursue a career and life that I would never have pursued otherwise. And in my darkest, most confused soul-searching hours he rescued me without hesitation, reservation or doubt even when I was filled with all of the above.
Tech Suport thanks go to Eugene Cole who has saved me numerous times in my computer support and personal life.
Personal thanks go to David Melton who opnened my eyes to some totally different approaches to living and solving problems. We both have learned so much side-by-side in the last 25 years -- and we walk away with such different lessons from same situations I gain much from attempting to understand him and his point of view.
And during my early childhood and teens a number of people formed my family of choice: Randall Hennion, Myra Bruff, Karen Hedrick, my maternal grandfather Bob Carroll, Aunt Joan, Anne Jenkins, Mary Kafes, Charlie Arehart and Charlie Hook to name a few.
Further back in time thank to my older brother Chris Brown, for rescuing me from the most aggregious family situations a young person sholud never be in and when he was a teen, not forgetting to include his kid brother in his social outings.
