Subject: RE: BS: Random Traces From All Over
bobad,

I wrote a novel 8 years ago called "The Best Intentions" about gene line therapy in which a company Genvac Inc. sold "Gene Vaccines" that would be passed on to all their future descendents.

Healing all future descendents as well as oneself was heralded as the greatest medical breakthrough of all time in which at first only the super wealthy could afford the treatment.

plot:
It wasn't until the seventh generation that the true danger of gene vaccines became known, and several more generations until we knew why. The second part of my plot was used in the screenplay 'The Last Mimzy'.


Now that scientists are starting to break their vow to keep their hands off gene line therapy...
Perhaps now is the time I should submit the entire book to a publisher. My ongoing problem is I still haven't found an editor that could help or understand my stories since I know with the right help these stories could be good enough to reach into the future like Jules Verne.
