  About the Author
  Mark is a writer, financial analyst, progressive thinker, web developer, and, as necessary, chef and janitor. Mark's web site, Grinning Planet, is an expression of his enthusiasm for all things humorous, green, and truthy, as well as a psychotic desire to work himself to death. Hobbies include music, healthy eating, getting frustrated over politics, and occasionally lecturing the TV set on how uncreative it is. Mark lives in Kentucky in the USA.

• You can also get a Grinning Planet logo to put with the reprint. (This is optional.)
