Acknowledgments
Many humble thanks to Peter Watts and Ian Watson, who read early and late drafts respectively, for their encouragement and detailed notes.
A big thank you to Geoff Bennett, Longo Hai, and TTG Music Lab for the awesome score, effects, supplementary recording, additional vocal performances, and sound engineering for the Brace + Erase MP3 (you can listen to it or download it free at the Luck and Death home page), also used as the soundtrack for the Brace + Erase video.
And thank you to Veronica French, whom I've never met and who doesn't know me, but who nevertheless jumped in to help when I needed last-minute assistance on the ground in Mexico City and couldn't get back there myself. Why did she run around the DF helping out a total stranger? Just because she believed in the project. Pretty awesome.
For the Second Edition I want to thank the staff at the Centers for Disease Control and Ted Meissner of the Secular Buddhist Podcast, both of whom I consulted in preparing The Facts in the Fiction. They were both extremely helpful and any errors that remain are entirely down to me.
Finally, special thanks to Saul Bottcher--beta reader, friend, and co-conspirator--for things that are too many and too various to list here.
