Bonnie Bracey"First of all, a big thank you to Karen Ellis.

I am my office, and she very thoughtfully asked to help me, when I was beginning to really do technology all over the world. This is the beginning of the story. But had I not met Karen as I started to blossom out in my work, all of the bits and bytes would have disappeared in cyber space. She has been a true friend, even when I am too tired to do more, she takes up the slack. Karen has been the main mentor for me as I worked." ~ Bonnie Bracey Sutton 2001
