I would like to publicly acknowledge the huge influence and inspiration Don Swanson was to me in my recently completed PhD studies (http://mss3.libraries.rutgers.edu/dlr/TMP/rutgers-lib_31169-PDF-1.pdf). In a 2001 term paper (http://comminfo.rutgers.edu/~msharp/text_mining.htm), I asserted that Dr. Swanson is the father of modern text mining, and I still believe that.
