Acknowledgments
This list represents a compilation from many sources, including slips of
unidentified paper and long-since-deleted electronic mail. Some sources, however, provided
significant enough contributions that they are remembered. Foremost among these are (1) a
list accumulated by veteran collector Conrad Schneiker (formerly of U of Arizona, now
believed to be at CDC in Sunnyvale) and expanded by Ed Logg, Gregg Townshend, and John
Ehrman, and (2) Paul Dickson's excellent book, "The Official Rules", which I
heartily recommend. Not only does Dickson include many items that, for one reason or
another, are omitted from this list, but he also includes attributions wherever possible.
(Some of his attributions are known to be incorrect, but it's still amusing reading.)
Another book: "The Complete Murphy's Laws" by Arthur Bloch.
