CO-EDITORS

Willem van Vliet--
Willem van Vliet-- is a mental laborer with  undefined skills.  He has a Ph.D. in Sociology (University of Toronto), etc., etc.   He became immersed in children's environments and housing problems by birth,  below sea level in an aporphyrogenic bunker in the postwar shortage-ridden  Netherlands. A.k.a. El Capitán, he is in possession of an uncertified  but authentic and persistent lunatic streak, evinced, inter alia, by his editing of the "Encyclopedia of Housing" and a growing stockpile of more  and less odd ends. After coming to CU, he has retained an abiding interest  in heather morning glory and rock gardening. 

Dessert remains his favorite dish.
