All three of these "Worthwhile Family Tales" or stories are loosely
based on our real life experiences. But recast in the form of "Tall
Tales" for our Grand nephews and nieces and a few other children in
our lives. All of their names are used as characters in the
stories, but are not of course biographical. Most of the real life
experiences occurred to us their Grand uncles and aunts and
Grandparents many years ago. It is our hope that these stories will
endure in our family as a keepsake from our generation to theirs.
The fictional core of this book was written in May of 1986 in three
days and copyrighted on June 11, 1986. The bulk of the book was
written over the ensuing years to mid 2009. Part fiction and part
memoir, it documents the zeitgeist of the era especially as regards
politics and the emerging biotechnologies. And the conjunction of
the two. Meant from the beginning to be both descriptive and
predictive, in several concrete particulars the work has proved
prophetic. In both intentional and unanticpated ways. Especially as
regards the prediction of the emergence of a killer common cold
virus with HIV/AIDS similarities. This of course occurred with the
SARS outbreak.
