I'm very happy to have landed in the Gulch...

I began my flight in 1962 and landed at 34th street with NBI as a rep in 1965.

I knew Miss Rand and was interviewed by Barbara Brandon and was at Miss Rand's 75 birthday party and her guest at the Harvard Breakfast the next day.

I am a professional philosopher and was an architect and landscape architect for many years. I am founding a research laboratory in the thermodynamics of living systems and innovation through induction.

There are two things you should know: I once told John Ridpath that Objectivism is the greatest product in the world and you don't know how to market it. He thought marketing was advertising and dismissed the idea. I know how.

Second, you need a product stream, which you know, but you need brilliant new innovative product that is only possible to Objectivists and displays its potential. I am working on a movie script, a documentary concept on Ayn Rand, and a book on the greatest thinkers. I commented on the TV series tonight.

I can create the product you need but I cant produce it.

My experience as an entrepreneur and developer tells me no one will ever know what it took you produce the three movies. Thank you.

    Tell me about your idea regarding the thermodynamics of living systems. Because of the ability to harness or convert energy from one life form into one's self, individual life forms can go temporarily away from thermodynamically stable states (death as a form of equilibrium) to one's that are further from equilibrium. I am a chemical engineering professor who will enjoy our thermodynamics debates, even if thermo isn't my specialty.

    The structure of the sentence is "I am doing X" the sentence has meaning if I am doing X. Since I am doing X, the sentence has meaning.
