The Star Wars films themselves, of course, and their respective creative geniuses in addition to George Lucas (who is akin to God!)
Thanks to Dad, who always took me to the theater to see each film during each release until 1983 and the onset of my cinema-going independence, pretending he hated it but secretly loving it...
...Myron, Jeremy H. and Jeremy G., Blaine, Spencer, James B. and James D., Chase, Sarah, Matt, Angela, Shon, and Rachel for suffering through my ever-increasingly complicated roleplaying campaigns that always run a little longer than anticipated ( like around a year and a half!)...
...and in particular, Alan Dean Foster and Brain Daley, whose respective novels Splinter of the Mind's Eye and Han Solo at Star's End made me first realize that there was an entire galaxy beyond the original film after I discovered their books. Without them, I never would have grown from an excited grade-schooler into the developer of this site, or the writer of 12 years' worth of Star Wars games. It is these two writers, and Master Lucas himself, to whom I owe over 20 years of dreams of a galaxy far, far away, and those dreams have carried me through some very dark times. My eternal thanks.
