BACK STORY & NOTES FOR MY NOVEL, THE ORIGINATORS My writing plan
I plan a high quality, creative writing effort with ongoing tension to appeal to a wide adult audience with believable characters, fast paced dialogues, and an international setting; an exciting story with a base of truth and honesty.
I have the Back Story, plot abstract, the very surprising ending, and even a potential sequel. The story is interesting because I think it answers most of the big questions about human history, with plausible answers.
(I wrote this poem as a plot outline to The Originators) THE ORIGINATORS* "From our secure caves
we advance from infancy
where the night sky of Orion
points to three beacons in sand
to begin life again. We come from a living land
and from a land of the dead
and our bridge to each is love;
it is our only survivor,
our only meaning. They are us,
and they are everywhere,
strong, handsome, and brilliant;
scattered among them,
for they are us." (A Fact: the 3 pyramids of Giza, Egypt, never had any loot or writings in them.)
One of my favorite sayings: by Harvard's president, Lawrence Summers, who says: "In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car." It is true of countries as well. Until the Arab peoples are given a real ownership stake in their countries — a real voice in how their countries are run, they will never “wash” them, nor improve them as they should.
STORY DETAILS
1. lightning is needed to separate water into H2 +O2. then the H2 is released or stored as energy to be used for blah blah blah.
2. H2 is found everywhere in the Universe, but lightning is scarce, (except, it is abundant on earth).
3. lightning is attracted to high towers of special alloy rods encased in stone boulders, like pyramids. The blast drifts downward into water storage machine/tanks where H2 is manufactured and stored for use on demand, even though, a little water goes a long way. The lightning is the catalytic tool that separates the O2 from the H2.
4. The Originators have been in disguise as techno-scientists who have released new discoveries over the centuries. They were men like Newton, Einstein, Galileo, etc., who then they set up their own fake deaths, only to move on to another personality. All science was tweaked by these aliens as a way to move us/them forward through evolution. We can visit back in time to identify special heroes as alien/immortals, moving the world’s evolution in a subtle way. We can then refer to a few heroes in every century as having been aliens in disguise as "inventors" in all disciplines.
5. As the story progresses, our hero, a central character, slowly discovers these benefactors as he unravels their mission from accidental clues.
However, our hero doesn't know that the Originators are good guys and sets out on a quest to find one or more of them.
6. The power of unlimited, free, energy, is a big responsibility for the Originators and our hero to protect. The evolution of science has brought the H2 possibility to the forefront, and has implications that attract power – mad, bad guys, and ruthless governments. The story should then settle into combat of "bad-guys" vs. heroes. The badies include oil cartels and related interests, etc. who do not want cheap, clean energy available to the world.
7. In the year 2003, a conspiracy group in the U.S. government plans on a war with the second biggest oil country, Iraq, expecting that Iraq’s leader will burn their own oil fields, as they did in Kuiwait, thus driving up the price of oil and bringing in billions in profit for the group. Additionally, this action sets off a ripple effect in the Muslin world where they accuse the U.S. of planned genocide.
8. Sides are taken, world wide, with China Russia, Japan, and France all siding with the oil cartel. After much devastation and finger pointing on both sides, the originators have no choice but to leak the news of a secret weapon, more important than any bomb, it is the obsolescence of all fossil fuels, and an immediate demand for a cease fire.
Each country in the world must sign a peace pact in exchange for free unlimited hydrogen energy. This action then sets off another series of actions just as brutal as the Iraq invasion that aimed at driving up oil prices. Free energy to replace and make oil obsolete, produces an even greater set of consequences from the oil power brokers who seek to protect their interests, reminiscent of Rockerfeller’s oil power against alternative energies, 100 years ago. (The ending will be a surprise and peacefully resolved).
9. Subplot, Our hero also has to decide if he wants to advance himself as an immortal. To be one, he has to learn about the hydrogen bracelet that infuses cell rejuvenation powers to maintain his physiology. (But this is another secret that is gradually revealed as the story progresses).
10. After 4,000 years on Earth II, the alien originators leave behind a few caretaker techies and historians, as they set off on a long voyage to their home planet, Earth. They plan on delivering sample rock, earth , sand, microbes, metals, gases, and other samples for study. They will report their successes and failures in hastening the conversion of humans to a level of peaceful mammals. Their return visit will be based on their government’s decision to evacuate their water-loss planet for Earth II or try to find another earth-like planet, and start again.
STORY LINE Starting 6,000 years ago, when the Originators arrived on this planet to find the latest evolutionary bipeds, now recognized as only a step above pre-man, called Neanderthals. These Homo Sapiens, having evolved over 5 million years from apes, would instinctively still be displaying their hostile aggressive ways, even if they survived to this day. However, the Originators whose DNA is so pure that the only way they were able to survive is through their technology, since their non-agression trait makes them function in a defensive mode.
A hydrogen energy field, is a defensive shield of protection, not a weapon to harm, and certainly never for killing. Originators compare this earth to their recorded history, and find that it took them 50,000 years to reach their current level of development of passivity. They made a collective decision to speed-up the human evolutionary process by tampering with cavemen's DNA through breeding. They do this by surreptitiously inseminating Neanderthal women and sterilizing the males. This resulted in women producing hybrids from Originators and Neanderthals. This process continued to be refined for the first 1,000 years, or until 5,000 BCE. By this time, much aggressive behavior is tempered, but not eliminated. Thus, it took 1,000 years on Earth for the Originators to develop a hybrid man with a modified aggressive DNA. By doing this, the human evolutionary process was able to skip ahead. Keep in mind, the Originators periodically infuse themselves with an hydrogen cocktail that rejuvenates their cell biology and continues to extend their lives. Each breeding attempt tends to refine hybrid-man to produce exceptional geniuses, like Galileo, Newton, Einstein, etc. This is the way technology was planned in every century in order to move our evolution closer to the Originators' sense of humanity's peace on earth.
Note too, the Originators are not politicians or the like, just focused on science and technology. This is where our hero comes in. He has a rare combination of all of the things one can wish for, through breeding; the things all Originators have, and more.
The Originators built a 400-foot tower to attract lightning to capture the 100 million volts into their labs, which were set below the tower. The problem with the towers, which were scattered in a few places on earth, was that large animals and human beasts tended to attack these towers. So-ooh, the Originators built cube-shaped boulders around the towers to defend them from attack.
The first towers were placed on a quiet island in the Atlantic, where plenty of water and lightning was available for conversion to H2 and O2. This Atlantis community of Originators prospered from 6,000 BCE to 5,000 BCE. Then, their underground labs were rocked by plate shifting from all of the constant lightning-delivered blasts over a 1,000 year span. This ended Atlantis, and the Originators moved to an area in Egypt and set three towers in line with the constellation, Orion. Then their robots using flying pods and hydrogen energy cranes set 200 ton stone cubes around the towers in a pyramid shape, in line with their communication stars, the constellation, Orion. Other 400-foot towers were built in Mexico and Peru, the Easter Islands, and Stonehenge. And note how tower buildings are still being formed today in selective skyscrapers around the world with lightning rods at their tops, like the Eiffel Tower. Lightning is 5 times hotter than the sun, consisting of 100 million volts of electricity in one blast, enough to mechanically separate H2 and O2.
We are still in the back story where our Hero appears in New York City getting ready to set sail for a Paris honeymoon to see the 1889 International Exposition and the new Eiffel Tower, the tallest structure in the world at 984 feet. (It was actually 1,000 feet, but that figure didn't sound credible). The Tower is in its final construction stage when he finds a lab below ground, while looking for his bride, etc, etc. We need a female for love and balance for our good guys.
Then the construction of the Chrysler Building in the 20’s and the Empire State Building in 1932 were tweaked into existence, housing secret underground labs and private high-speed vacuum transportation tunnels. Towers in Singapore, Chicago, etc., were later formed to allow for a network of Originators world wide, to counter activities of the carbon-based international oil cartel; bad guys who are exposed in the story.
Our hero, as I see the story beginning, is in dialogue with his moderately wealthy father who is summing up final instructions to him and Leah, his bride to be. The two will be gone for 5 weeks sailing to France for a honeymoon, while a new home on 5th avenue, New York City, is being furnished for when they return home. One of Chaim’s interests is electricity as being offerred by Edison as DC current, and Westinghouse as AC current. Father explains, the latest technology will be furnished in his new home, along with secret rooms to be used as research labs by Chaim.
The beginning story sets some tension that is a prelude to the accidental meeting of one of the Originators at the Eiffel Tower:
Chaim asks Leah to leave their Paris hotel at 4 a.m. so that they could ascend the tower before sunrise to watch the sun come up and see the city from high up. They agree to do this, and half way up, Leah falls over a loose safety rail and plunges down toward the ground where a man is standing with his left arm pointed at her as his right hand grips his left wrist. An aura is directed from the end of the stranger’s extended hand that encircles Leah and gently lowers her to the ground. Chaim stands in shock looking in awe, and then realizes that this man somehow did something to save Leah’s life. The man holds Leah’s limp body as Chaim races down the stairs. At he reaches the lowest level, he sees the man hurrying through a door at the side of the Tower, just before Chaim could reach him, and thank him. But first he rushes quickly to Leah who is regaining consciousness. Chaim and Leah are alone holding each other as a glow surrounds the two of them. Chaim then wants to find the stranger. They examine the door that doesn’t have a doorknob or hinges. The area is vacant. Chaim seems to have contracted the glow from holding his new wife. He feels energized, as does Leah. As they stand looking at the flush almost invisible door, Chaim notices two slanted rows of depressions on the door’s surface, notches, just the size to accommodate his glowing ten fingers. The door swiftly opens like a curtain coming down, and they step into a small room, as the door instantly seals behind them. A glass-like tube seals them as the floor drops open lowering them down to a sunlit chamber, where the stranger is standing with two women beside him. A voice speaks describing what we know as DNA. Then another voice that comes from the stranger, speaks in calm soothing tones describing what had just happened.
I intend to use real 2003 names from the headlines; analysis and lineage statistics announce details back to the “beginning.”
Some information about the Originators are revealed, but not all, since the Originators are amazed at Chaim’s own DNA analysis.
And so, Chaim, Leah, and The Originators set off to plan the introduction of free, clean, and abundant energy to coincide with the introduction of the automobile at the start of the 20th century. Gradually more is learned about EarthI and EarthII and all history to date. Also, Chaim is told of his potential powers, before he and Leah return to New York.
Then the plot thickens. Power brokers vs. Teddy Roosevelt; 1000 auto manufactures , some with steam, or kerosene, or new electric to power their vehicles. And of course the oil barrons who are determined to kill off all of this competition. Then the stupid, stupid World War called WWI. Had that war not happened, the hydrogen technology would have been introduced just in time to stop the awful Henry Ford from dictating the course of industry.
More?
This story is so plausible, that I may be at risk if...
Science and my plot notes Rockefeller promoted oil to the exclusion of all other energies even though the Originators had Hydrogen ready for release.
In 1889, engineer, A,G, Eiffel built a tower for Paris International Expo to a height of 984 feet, the tallest structure in the world. 1st controlled atomic reaction set off at the University of Chicago on 12/2/1942
In 1884, when rebuilding Chicago after their great fire of 1871, a fresh idea developed by an unknown architect, William Le Baron who built the world’s first skyscraper for The Home Insurance Company. Home Insurance moved from their HDQ in the old Water Tower on Chicago’s Michigan Avenue to the 1st skyscraper, a 10 story Chicago building. The Home Insurance Building had steel girders lifted in place by cranes. Then in 1969, Home Insurance relocated to a 100 story Hancock Bldg in Chicago.

___________________________
Angle or slope of Giza pyramids were geometrically perfect, and were the highest structure for 4,000 years at 481 feet.
No mummies were ever found in these pyramids because these three pyramids were used as a launching and landing pad, on a SW line exactly in line with the constellation Orion. When the Originators abandoned these pyramids, they put a capstone on each of the three projecting towers that ran through them.
Note: No writings were found in Giza, but writings were found in other crumbling pyramids.

We are the elders, the aliens; a combo of Neanderthals and Originators referred to as Cro Magnon Man, arriving suddenly out of nowhere, with no lineage back in evolution, except for this supposition, a hybrid from a combination of Cavemen with Originators.

Y chromosome for males do not change; only the X for females changes during procreation. Markers: A,G,M,T are in sequence unless mutated. These markers can be compared to any two individuals to make a positive related DNA connection.
Southeast of the United States: we are 1 mile away from the most frequent lightning occurrences, one every 3 seconds, where Atlantis was located for 1,000 years, from 6,000 BCE to 5,000 BCE. The deeply set lightning rods receiving blasts from lightning, finally shook seismic plates that swallowed the island of Atlantis. The Originators abandoned Atlantis and split into small groups, locating in various countries where inconspicuous towers were built; science and technology, and the secret Originator way of life continued.
RESEARCH SCIENCE FOR THE ORIGINATORS NOVEL SCIENCE NOTES: •The Originators believe: "SUMMUM BONUM" – meaning they believe in the highest good – referring to the object of human life. The supreme good in which all moral values are included or from which they are derived. The reverence and sanctity for human life is the greatest good.
•Originators are not in violation of the Adamic Covenent of creation in which god promised eternal life or death.
•More characteristics of Originators: They are peaceful, contemplative, and deeply emotional, but not disturbed with superficial emotions, such as lust and anger. Their emotions are focused on art, beauty, integrity, harmony, love, life, and inner truth.
•Egyptian sand was used as raw silica, because of its very high melting point when mixed with soda, then a lit fire reduces silica’s melting point. The result is a flawless fiber glass lightning rod that is 5 times stronger than steel, when pulled lengthways.
•LiDon cites Epiphanies as he watches Chaim break through with a simple yet powerful solution: intense moments of revelation, insight, and wisdom are deep truths that come about from seemingly, trivial events.
•Before writing was invented, the most important skill was the ability to memorize. After writing, our brain shifted; the “muscle” weakened.
•IMPORTANT: THE ORIGINATORS HAVE BEEN WORKING FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS ON A SCIENCE PROJECT PERTAINING TO TACHYON PARTICLES. These are the particles that move faster than the speed of light. The solution, though hypothetical, is a way of moving people , atom by atom, to another place in space. With this solution, they can transfer to home Earth I in days, not thousands of years. I ask myself if I want this scenario in the book sequel, with Chaim leading the way with this solution?
•100,000 brain neurons die every day. I think replacement neurons need to be "trained" because the new ones have no memory.
•The GreatPyramid of Cheops dated at 2600 B.C.E
•The Oiginators can manipulate genetics, increase intelligence, levitate, use prosthetic medicine to grow new limbs, and use holography for obtaining 3-dimensional spatial information, but I must be careful about using levitation and death-ray-guns and teleportation and invisibility and robots. I want a plausible-science story without resorting to science-fiction, so despite their science capability, I don't expect to use these devices. (The world of science will have developed some of these capabilities by the year 2020).
•I like the idea about rogue Originators who disagreed with their council about speeding up evolutionary development. However, I don’t have a ready idea as to how we can use them to show the reader that even the Originators are not PERFECT, but are “humans” after all. This is a way of maintaining ongoing tension throughout the story; a family conflict.
•When extracting Hydrogen from water, the Originators are careful to mine trace minerals like gold, etc. in the process.
BACK STORY FOR THE ORIGINATORS NOVEL
STORY AND PLOT:
If fossil fuel oil is replaced by a free, clean, abundant source of energy, then the politics of the world will dramatically change. That is where my story goes, and that is the solution that would quickly ripple through all world societies, leading to a potential lasting peace on earth. The story will take on political intrigue, violence, murder, and massive evil conspiracies, on an international scale. Oil power “bad guys” vs. the free-Hydrogen “good guys.”
To reach forward with my premise, I had to develop Originators who already lived with a recorded history spanning 50,000 years. The Originators came from their home planet to earth, 8,000 years ago in search of a planet like ours. (Please note, this is not a science –fiction story. That is why I refer to them as Originators who evolved us from caves.)
They came from a history patterned very similar to our own, but they cannot wait for us to catch up to their level of human evolution. As space explorers, their search was for a water planet with a hydrogen sun, 92 million miles away, that mirrored their home planet in atmosphere, size, and gravity.
I show these Originators as being able to extend life, because they have discovered how to rejuvenate their biology with hydrogen particle infusions. Note that we are currently seeing science on the edge of this technology. (There is a theoretical cell replication. of 120 times, and a biblical reference of a maximum life span of 120 years. This 120-year reference came from alien tweaking of DNA throughout the last 8,000 years.)
They have been trying to shorten the evolutionary process by introducing brilliant technology in every century without disclosing that they, the aliens, are us, and they were responsible for modifying aggressive Neanderthal DNA behavior through breeding. That is why we don't find the missing link from Nedanderthal/Cro man to "modern" man. THUS, THE ALIENS ARE US! (Before us, there were Neanderthals, then remarkably, modern man appears?)
The story will have a super hero who will take center stage, because he will go through a transformation as he begins to see the world from "30,00 feet" view. My main character, Chaim, means life. Other characters will develop who also strive for honesty and truth to reach Summum Bonum.
The end of the story will be the beginning; a book that stresses universal human rights, peace, and love, and most of all, the reverence for human life. But getting to that point will require my surprise ending and continued resolution and answers to problems in every century.
The Originators are peaceful and serene, and very patient in tweaking our history, for they knew, if we, our pre-humans were left on our own, we would barely be much farther along today than cave men fighting for survival. And caveman survival would have been iffy, at best.
Throughout the book we will, for example, solve Stonehenge, The Pyramids, and many mysteries, with plausible explanations. I would like to use a subtle style that through dialogue, gives the reader the feel of an international plausible thriller, fast paced, with a touch of plausible science fiction, and much political intrigue. Also watch for two or three levels of meaning in subplots and clues from names.
The plot (1) won’t reveal that we are the aliens; (2) that Originators are walking among us, still breeding, and doing much of the scientific research, that moves our evolution ahead to their level; (3) that the Originators have never revealed their presence to anyone; (4) that our hero discovers their existence and their peaceful intentions; (5) that human logic and deep emotions prevail, even through subplots; (6)the main plot of good vs. evil should force the reader to always try to figure out the next step, always guessing.
One of my favorite sayings: by Harvard's president, Lawrence Summers, who said: "In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car." It is true of countries as well. Until the Arab peoples are given a real ownership stake in their countries — a real voice in how their countries are run, they will never “wash” them, nor improve them as they should.
END OF STORY SPEECH = “in the beginning, g-d gives man the gift of life…” no one but g-d has the right to end the given life except g-d. for no man is not needed to do g-d’s work.
Righteous men do not murder or kill or harm any man women or child for any reason, in g-d’s name. To do so is blasphemy. The righteous strive to preserve life; all life.
They aid the sick, feed the hungry, house the homeless, and treat all humans the way one would want to be treated. This is goodness, and the more good deeds one does the more one will be praised. May he or she who is holy be praised for eternity.
