	The Powdermaker 2000 was built by Ed Kuhner of the Queens College Physics Dept. Machine Shop. Cherokee Blue-and-White Dent corn was provided by Carl Barnes of Turpin, OK. Iroquois White Flour corn was obtained from the American Indian Agriculture Project at Cornell University. We also wish to acknowledge the patience and good humor displayed by our colleagues in the Anthropology Lab, who put up with many hours of loud thumping during the course of this experiment.
