A THIN VENEER"

That's just the beginning of the numbers of authors and people whose suggestions and comments and additions large and small contributed to this story. I have a whole bunch of people that I need to thank for everything, from the wife and now adult kids whose names I used in the stories to comments from reviewers I remember that I used some of their materials. I don't have their names after all of this time, but I thank you. he readers thanks you as well.
ATV was a collaborative effort that started with Col. Crackpot's short story which was incorporated into A Thin Veneer. I thank him once again for writing the short story about an Earth Alliance vessel finding Federation Territory. His idea gave me ideas and I gratefully acknowledge that story.
I also I acknowledge NorJC and his wonderful companion ATV story 'The Blood of Saints'. It is a direct side story to the original story. Long may he write.
I have the Minbari, the Federation, Earth Alliance, Psi-Corps, the Dominion off to the side, the Metrons, the Gorn, the Ashen (named after a certain individual who knows who he is) and a host of other characters we know (and don't know) and love. Also, this story was conceived by many, many others. I am not that smart to think of all of this. That belongs to them and to you readers and your suggestions. I had no clue about the Gorn for example. I believe Matt S did that.
All of this means is that I am not the true author, I am only the paper pusher who got his name on as first author. Those people mentioned above pointed me in the right direct and I, with their blessing, went for it.
It makes me humble that I had so much help and assistance. Thank you all.
This marks the End of ATV for now. I should have smooth it out some but in the end I chose to leave it as it is for reason that will one day become clear. And hopefully the billions or error will not be present if this continues in the future.
,And yes, one day I will continue this, probably before this year is over…
Time passes and things change. We have lost a lot of people for one reason or another and there are viruses in the air that we must watch out for. I hope that you eho read this are all well.
Now as promised I must do the extended disclaimer because I OWN NOTHING!
