Please, CodeMonk, no more comments about my weight. :) And, seriously, while I do think I have something good to say once in a while, I'm no giant. The ideas I share here are founded in large part on the work of men and women whom I'm lucky to have worked with, who work harder and know more than I do. I'm referring to people like Kent Beck, Alistair Cockburn, Ward Cunningham, Jim Highsmith, Martin Fowler, Bob Martin, Mary and Tom Poppendieck, and many many more. I'm proud of my part in all this, and feel that I've made some important contributions. But giant? No. But thanks very much: it's really a delight to hear once in a while that one's attempts to contribute are appreciated. Now go out and tell all your money-bearing associates who need XP and Agile training and coaching to get in touch. Thanks!
