THX - An Alternative Award Speech

I've always admired people who can deliver good award show speeches - sharp, witty, to the point, and yet with room to thank the most important people. Bewildered by the star light and pushed for time, most award speakers seem to forget half of those people they would like to thank. I have no other immediate occasion for a good award speech, but I figured that you can never be too prepared. I have a lot of people to thank in my quest. Some for their example alone. Some for their inspiring savvy and intellect, if not foolproof advice. Some embraced me with whole-heartedness and warmth. Some delivered the jokes and the artistic backdrop along the way. And others again I would like to thank for the tribulations they threw at me - only to make me stronger. In alphabetical listing, but of no particular priority:


This THX list has been continuously running for upto 18 months.
If some are missing, who should be on the list, it is simply because
I am unaware.
Reversely, some may be on the list who are possibly listed by mistake or no longer credited.
People actually on the list - right or wrong - have received thank you's in truck loads by now.
Longer than any award show that lasts only one night.

IN 2010, THE THX LIST IS CURRENTLY UNDER REVISION
