Douglas R. Miller
Born and educated in Pennsylvania, obtaining his bachelor degree from Washington and Jefferson College with majors in biology and chemistry. He then migrated to New York State where he got his Ph.D. in medical physiology from Cornell University and where he also met and married his wife, Jane. After doing his postdoc at Massachusetts General Hospital, he worked as a research scientist at several companies and universities. Dr. Miller wrote over two hundred scientific papers, grants, patents, and a lab manual. His research was mostly in the areas of arthritis, cancer, bone and soft tissue repair, enhanced vaccines, several areas of electrochemistry, and food safety.
Fisscial Intelligence
For decades, science fiction writers and even scientists have speculated that Artificial Intelligences, Als, created by humans might someday become so advanced that they will become sentient. And that when they did, and their intelligence far exceeded that of humans, they would recognize the inability of humans to manage the Earth and try to take over, just like the Terminator stories.
Sole Ownership
Intelligent life has been observing mankind for millenia. It's not alien. It's here. And it's not going to take anymore.
Whales and dolphins (cetaceans) have almost always been peaceful and non-combative. But by the year 2015, their fishing grounds have been depleted to a critical level and both the cetaceans and their food supplies are being exposed to more pollution in both the water and air, further subjecting them to starvation and disease.
NOT YOUR GRANDFATHER'S
PRIME DIRECTIVE
Chris Carter and Gene Roddenberry got a lot of it right. There are other intelligent races in the galaxy capable of interstellar travel and of forming a Consortium able to cooperate on mutual interests. Unfortunately, Roddenberry's vision of the human race maturing by the end of the 21st century and working for the common good-- not likely. And Carter's idea of malevolent aliens wanting to take over the Earth using human-alien hybrids, with the aid of powerful humans, also is not quite right.
