I especially want to thank my son, David, who drew all the illustrations on his computer. I am indebted to all those individuals who read and offered valuable suggestions to the manuscript. I thank Dr. Robert Brown, in particular, for thoroughly reviewing the manuscript, and liberally supplying much red ink. I appreciate all the comments provided by fellow atmospheric scientist, Dr. Larry Vardiman, and by Dr. Henry Morris, Dr. Steve Austin, Dr. Gerald Aardsma, and Mr. David Unfred. I thank my wife, Beverly, and my children for their patience during the research and writing of this monograph.
