KillWare III: The Accidental Prisoner

to tireless wastelands webmaster eric xian von foerster—

thanks for introducing me to the cognitive-perceptual

condition called synesthesia

to linus torvalds & all the unsung gifted heroes of the

GNU/linux and opensource (FLOSS – free libre open

source software) communities in the electronic wastelands

of the 21st century

and to gifted & talented at-risk young homosapients

everywhere—who don't need to evolve but should just be

allowed the opportunity

to shine.

KillWare III - acknowledgements

thanks to all my faithful readers and literary critics: first and foremost my beloved wife and artistic sponsor janet l kragen; my dear daughter colleen; my two brothers geoff kragen (and his lovely bride janette) & lance kragen; my dear mom treva viola (w/90 years of life at her beck & call who now lives the next life, forever, without the aid of “noninvasive” implants); life-long friends mark & peggy schultz and family; my very gifted buddy nathan abell; and likewise gifted tech advisor eric von forester; without all of you, i’d have a story, but i would not have a story that shines.

thank you to the garbologists at the university of washington, seattle, for their invaluable resources and pioneering work at 'the uw garbology project' (http://uwgarbology.weebly.com/).

special thanks to bob howard and mona grant; without you two having lived it, this writer would be...well, nowhere. let’s do beer sometime, guys.
