A word of gratitude goes out to these individuals who volunteered their time during the conference to take on the responsibilities of moderating the multiple paper sessions. They kept the timing, scheduling, and the format structure intact. This year's duties were extremely important due to the number of papers that were presented. The conference would have not been successful without their efforts.

SPECIAL THANKS

These individuals are the "unsung" heroes. They were involved behind the scenes working the review process, converting files to web formats, answering email, and diligently preparing the papers for publication. Success hinged on deadlines and a lot of hard work. The proceedings would have never been realized if it was not for their efforts!

Clark	Schiring	University of Nebraska - Lincoln	Assistant to the Editors
Jingyi	Zhu	University of Nebraska - Lincoln	Graduate Research Assistant

Also a special recognition and thanks is directed toward an individual that put in a lot of hours just to get the conference off the ground. He is without doubt key to the Proceedings success. He provided the schedule, topical groupings, equipment, and space for the paper presentation/discussions. Many thanks!
