I dedicate this Essay to my wife, Roxanne B. Branton, in recognition of her tolerance of my drive to succeed. I am truly indebted to her for her patience and willingness to allow me the freedom to pursue my varied personal and professional interests.

Mikva, Law Reviews, Judicial Opinions, and Their Relationship to Writing, 30 Stetson L. Rev. 521, 524–525 (2000) (discussing the use of footnotes). Therefore, I will keep the use of footnotes to a minimum. 1.
