    yes, I thank you. I had to read Don Quixote in spanish in HS. I'm sure I missed a bunch of good stuff there with Cervantes. I did not know who G. Guidall was. so far, it looks like my brother-in-law is going to do the audio version. lol

    Saying George Guidall would read your book is the highest compliment I could think of. If you have a month, listen to him read Don Quixote, he does all of Vince Flynn’s Novels (Mitch Rapp).

    I am sure I told you about "O Human Child." that should be next on your list. Walter Donway is a beautiful writer. Looking at early american artists. lovely, lush, evocative, wild and trying to tame at the same time. brilliant

    I loved Pendulum of Justice. Now I’m reading W Donway’s “The Way the Wind Blew” so far so good.
    DKHalling did more than your average amount of research. There was nothing fuzzy about it, when an explanation was called for she did the heavy lifting and the picture was clear as an unmuddied lake. Besides making the technical aspects easy to understand the description of food was extra ordinarily memorable. Maybe an odd thing to say, but it’s true.

    Congratulations on your book. No wonder you post here so much. You are an author and writing is your skill.

    There are many authors here. After reading "Pendulum of Justice", I read "The Frankenstein Candidate" by user vinay, then "Shadows Live Under Seashells" by user AJAshinoff. I think user WDonway is next on my list.

    Hmm... Maybe she said death proteins... whatever it is that promotes apoptosis. My understanding is that normal apoptosis or programmed cell death (PCD) is natural and healthy. Cancer cells seem to resist PCD when they cease to function properly. It's all very fascinating to me, but like I said, I don't really know enough to speak intelligibly about it.

    It's a bit over my head. She said that for the most part, it sounded very accurate. Most of her research at Hopkins was in the electrophysiology of the heart (sodium and potassium channels and all that). More specifically, genetic therapy distribution methods. She partly (is that the right word) holds a patent on the use of a DuPont chemical that is liquid at room temperature and solid at body temperature to literally "paint" the heart to deliver genetic therapy. I don't recall whether the genetic therapy in question used genetically altered viruses or antiviruses, but I think the patent is just for the delivery method. More recently she's worked with a research team using a chemical that flushes away death hormone and other residuals from heart damage. Again, it's mostly beyond my ability to speak intelligibly about. I'll grill her for more details.

    issues with how we described something? The procedure itself is real. Awaiting funding for FDA. PM me when she's got time to let us know.
    We have just seen another Gulch review! Spinkane's review made me google!
    I did receive one horrible review. Luckily, they did not finish the book and post an Amazon review. You might be surprised to know they work for the federal govt.

    No problem with the first half here either... or the names. My wife has done extensive heart research at Johns Hopkins and for various clients at a contract research facility. She noted a couple of minor technical issues, but also pointed out that they were irrelevant to the plot. Congratulations on more good reviews. I am certain they will continue to keep coming in.
