References

Since I have a dreadful tendency to forget to include my list of references, I am including a better bibliography here as a post of its own.  It is not alphabetized, unfortunately.  But I delay still longer to do that, it will only get longer and I may forget it altogether.  When I eventually get it alphabetized, if I remember, I will republish it.  Here goes:
