Book 3
Part of the Not From Earth
SciFi Adventure Series
The continuing saga of James Ripley
The Human Immortals
Suspect They May Be In A Vast Computer Simulation
James discovers that his lost love from college is still alive, and that is impossible.
Immortal light beings could experience their mortal bodies anytime. It made the transition to light immortality bearable. Like most humans, James still occasionally enjoyed being in his old body. He would run and bike.
One day, he climbed the mountain behind his parent’s old home that they maintained for sentimental reasons. As he reached his favorite flat rock, he saw a young woman standing there, looking upon the much-changed city. As she turned toward him, James fell to his knees.
“Alice!” James gasped.
“Hello, flyboy.”

Made in America
The End of Innovation
Release Date 06/24

“The America Invents Act (AIA) was the single worst disaster in the 226 year history of the U.S. patent system." Paul Morinville founder of US Inventors Inc.
The word "Right" is used only once in the constitution:
Article I, Section 8, Clause 8, of the United States Constitution grants Congress the enumerated power "To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive Right to their respective writings and discoveries."
But that all ended with the America Invents Act. An Act paid for by big high tech corporations to prevent competitive innovation by individuals and small companies.
Nikola Tesla had 300 patents, and many of them, if not all, would have been killed by today's America Invents Act because Thomas Edison, with his vast resources, attacked Tesla's inventions relentlessly. Edison publicly electrocuted hundreds of animals to demonstrate how dangerous Tesla's alternating current was.
The days of American inventors like Tesla and Jobs ended with the America Invents Act in 2012. It was the result of big tech political contributions. Edison would have been thrilled with the AIA back then, and it might have saved the poor animals from electrocution with alternating current. Of course, the world would have been stuck with a worthless solution.
Made in America is the story of the end of America's greatness as the world's innovator and the journey of one American computer programmer's struggle to defend his right to innovate.
