Acknowledgements

The inspiration for the intial cernan work leaned very heavily on Mark Story's rust-stats-server. I originally thought I might just adapt that project but ambitions grew. Thank you Mark!

Thank you also to John Koenig and Tom Santero who have both been willing to review large pull-requests at odd hours and always were ready to whiteboard problems.

Finally, thank you to Oliver Troutwine, my beloved Little Man, who passed away on September 13, 2016. He and I spent many long hours walking and thinking through the difficulties of building empirical models of complex systems, a line of thinking from which cernan was conceived. Cernan was our last project together.

Oliver went forward every day in the spirit of exploration to see what there was to see. May we all.
