Hi. My name is Frank. This is my story. Most of the world didn't live all the way through the cataclysmic events. Most of us who did are content to just write our stories down, place them in bottles, and toss those bottles into the stream. Like most, I'm hoping that somebody downstream will find my story. Then perhaps, all the stories will merge. All the pieces will be put together. And at last we'll finally know what really happened. This is my story of what happened the night the stars went away.

Most have seen a Rose, held it, and deeply inhaled its fragrance- though the fragrance causes headaches for some. But just how familiar are we with the Rose? How intimate are we with it? In this book, I'll explore the various parts of the Rose in more detail without getting technical. Many things in this book you'll already be familiar with. I hope you enjoy the memories. If you're looking to give an intimate gift like a Rose, perhaps it will make it a more special gift if you're more intimate with it. Every species has their own language. This is the Word of the Rose. I hope you read it with a Rosy disposition.

I've been following advances in electric cars for nearly 50 years and advances in hybrids for 15. I started following electric cars while writing a paper in history class in seventh grade on current events. I started following hybrids when the Honda Insight was released in 1999. I also started following fuel-cell cars about that same time. The Xybrid expands on hybrid technologies, discussing new, potential, and conceptual technologies. If you're interested in cars, and especially if you're interested in hybrids and electric cars, then this book is for you, whether you understand how cars work or not.

In Search of a Right-Brained Computer is the story of my search to find a computer for my right-brained wife. Since I'm left-brained, this was perhaps a futile attempt. Yet I pursued it.

I then go through a computer system I designed in an attempt to design a right-brained computer. Then I analyze where it came close to meeting its mark and where it fell short.
