The idea to adapt the shrine for Mark McKinney is not a new one, and the impetus to actually create the damn thing comes from several people-- specifically, Tavie's friends, Kitana and Gina. This site should rightfully be called "Gina and Kitana and Tavie's Online Shrine to Mark McKinney".
The brains behind adapting much of the html came from Kitana .
The text of the bio was written by the three of us. If you have any questions or comments to make, they should go to Tavie.
