I would like to thank the following people very much: Ms. Joan Plunket for her assistance, Mr. Crowe and Mr. Day for their wonderful cooperation, Mr. Wayne Erickson and Ms. Janet Mauck for their photography and valuable time. Among others deserving thanks are Terri Spencer and Kathy Dunlap for their time in helping me meet deadlines, Ms. Landgrebe and the Rensselaerien staff for their loan of the camera, Paula Oliver for her help and encouragement, and finally, the CHAOS staff for their ceaseless work which made this book possible. The 1979 CHAOS staff would also like to thank the patrons and advertisers for their generous contributions. Without the help of all these people, the publication of our book would not have been possible.
