Acknowledgements
I would like to thank Weebly for hosting me, and my wonderful math teacher, Robyn Mesenbring. Oooh, and if someone hadn't invented Google, I would still be poring over dusty, moldy tomes in the half-light of the library study area. Thank you, Google inventor, for creating your wonderful search engine and swooping down from your palatial office full of old, chunky computers showing complicated hyper text mark up language objects for what is to be the next chunk of interesting looking text on the homepage and snatching me, the hardly fair but still a damsel in distress from the jaws of mold, yellowing, and constant hushing of the library. (Although you could hardly count me as a damsel.) Again, I thank you. I would also like to thank my mom, who is my caretaker, proofreader, and link-mailer.
