Our advisory staff is made up of dedicated people who have offered ideas, and
contributed images and information to make this website as complete and accurate
as possible. They have provided guidance, support, suggestions, and
encouragement. I wish to personally thank each one for his/her cooperation and
constructive advice. Working together, I believe this site will be a
comprehensive compendium of text and imagery which can become a primary source
for people all over the world.
Here are the people I want to particularly recognize because they are the
team who have built this website. This list keeps growing with time.
Dr. David Fleishman
