Acknowledgements

Official sites and people

First and foremost, let me acknowledge the official Smallville sites that created the Ezra Small mystery. Check out The Smallville Ledger website; this is where the Prophecies were first posted. The CW's Ezra Small House and Museum is another excellent resource for everything Ezra.

In particular, I thank the wonderful Christopher James Beppo, the man behind the Prophecies. I was first fortunate enough to make contact with him via email, and he (as well as the Ledger Editors who helped me communicate with him) treated me with more consideration and kindness than I could have ever imagined. Then, I was able to meet him in person along with Associate Producer Mark Warshaw right before Smallville Legends: Justice and Doom premiered. I'm incredibly grateful for this as well as for the hours of enjoyment the Prophecies themselves provide. Don't miss Season 5's Project Mercury 2.0 blog. Finally, be sure to check out the official Smallville website.

Smallville: The Official Magazine

Smallville: The Official Magazine (Or, more succinctly (and cutely) S:TOM, hee!) Is a very awesome source for interviews, behind-the-scenes stories, hints at what the future will bring, and feature articles and brand-new Prophecies that will be available nowhere else! I also definitely have to thank the editors of the Ledger and S:TOM. They have given my site props in an edition of the Ledger, and I've been treated to shout-outs in not one, not two, but THREE issues of S:TOM. You guys are truly the greatest.

Tabitha Chapman

Tabby is the designer and admin of AllisonMack.com. She is a fabulously talented software engineer and is the mastermind behind the redesign of SESPS that premiered 19 April 2007. I really can't say enough good things about her.

KryptonSite

Next, I have to acknowledge KryptonSite-- the absolute *best* Smallville site ever. No contest. Breaking news as it happens, exclusive interviews, spoilers you can't find anywhere else, and wealth of info for each and every episode of Smallville... All of that is at KryptonSite, and more.

If you consider yourself a fan of Smallville and can obey some simple rules, visit and/or join the KryptonSite Message Forums, and tell them shirkie sent you! Many of the translations and interpretations posted on this site are my own, but I also gathered a lot of information from the Message Forums and from Rumorville, KryptonSite's speculation page.

Finally, I have to boast that as of October 2006, I am a Moderator of KSite's Message Forums, so there's another reason why you should head on over there and enjoy yourself. :)

Rich's World

Rich's World has been very helpful to me; it's a wonderful fansite run by the fabulous Rich, and it received its own coded shout-out in S:TOM. There is SO much information there, much of it hidden away... It's a treasure hunt for dedicated fans. I consider Rich a good "Internet friend" now, and it's our websites that have made our friendship possible!
