Weather control

You know we can do it. We've got the science, we've got the machines, we've gotÂ that run awayÂ arrogance that leads us to believe we are mightier than any force in our world. It sounds like the kind of sinful exercise that might lead to something Irwin AllenÂ wouldÂ get an erection ...

You say bologna, I say baloney

Everything is relative, really. Even lunch meat. Take baloney. If you're poor and that's all you have to eat, the stuff will start to taste like the flesh off a dead man's buttocks. If you eat anything you want and crave baloney once or twice a year, it's like prime rib. Mechanically [...]

The Last Resort

About the Book

Free Excerpt From The Book (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader)

In the year 2086, the world is a different place. Cars run high above the ground with the help of electromagnetism. The political boundaries of the world have been reshaped by a long war with China. Much of California has been lost to the big earthquake and life has been discovered elsewhere in the universe.

The world of the future is fantastically different, but the game of baseball remains largely unchanged.

At Fenway Park in Boston, an elderly man shares with his grandson the joy of the game's history. Unfortunately, baseball has been marred by cheaters and scandals. As scientific advances have come faster and faster, so has man's abilities and desires to cheat.

"Asterisk" is the story of Abraham Noble, one of the greatest hitters of all time who nearly brought about the end of the sport. It is the story of baseball icons and of the human frailties that threaten the game.

Find out how complex science like dark matter will effect America's most beloved pastime. Find out how the game will be played and how the Red Sox will fare as mankind's knowledge and progress rockets into the future.
