This will eventually be the page upon which will be recounted a few of the droplets of tears, blood, and sweat shed creating the Jaggers & Shad SF mystery series appearing in Analog. It is a writing rule of mine to never inflict upon the reader all of the research you have done on a story---at least, not in the story. Still, the author winds up with piles and piles of really neat stuff that not everyone finds interesting, but some do. For those readers who really want to dig into a piece's background, I hope this will be an interesting place for fans of Detective Inspector Harrington Jaggers and Detective Sergeant Guy Shad.
