I would also like to thank the editors of the Code Of Iowa for the general outline format allowing for such a clear and rational organization of so much material. Also, thanks to Sue Kirk (See 3.7B(a)2,1c,1.7) for lots of the songs. If you like any of the following music, please support the artist and purchase their disc by clicking here.
