First, I must thank Mr. Baruch A.K.A. "Ben" Speiser, my dedicated AP computer teacher, for mentoring me in this website project. He has clued me into the wonders of FrontPage 2000, which has been exchareeeeeemly helpful in making sure that all the links at this site work properly.
Next comes the Kol Torah staffs from the past 10 years. After all, they are the ones who are giving me something to publish today. They also cover for me when I'm late to class and look very good on a college transcript, so that's cool too.
Special thanks goes to Rabbi Zvi Grumet who, besides being an extraordinary Chumash teacher and article-writer, has been the main administrative contact to Kol Torah. As coordinator of the senior project program, he must be thanked for giving me a free period a day in which to work on this site.
Another teacher to thank is Rabbi Howard Jachter who has helped us incredibly with his Halacha articles, as well as being the voice of reason within the teachers' guild on behalf of Kol Torah.
Now comes the hail...
...hail Tina, a school secretary and Kol Torah's representative it the office,
for making sure that we are all well-stocked with paper and ink of all sorts.
...hail Fred, the head custodian, for making sure that our office doesn't fall
apart or explode or anything damaging like that.
...hail Johnson, from Robert Johnson's Copying Center on Queen Anne Road, for
being there when Ricoh doesn't come through or when we need to staple a large
issue.
...and of course, hail Frankie.
...A big salute to you all.
And of course, how can we forget our 1500+ readers of Kol Torah, be they received at a local Minyan, via snail mail, e-mail, or fax. We can only publish if there are people who read what we have to say, so thank you for sticking with us for all these years.
