A friend of mine from LFK wrote that book. He's been working on a movie deal for it for several years. Haven't heard from John since I bagged FB.

Hi Morris
Wow-- thanks for this info. That's remarkable.
Here is the Jungian concept of "synchronicity" or "meaningful coincidence" I discussed in the four aliens OP.
Glad this OP was read and enjoyed by someone.

He's had some very serious names attached to that film project. He's written for film and TV for awhile. Regretting his move to FL.

I wish him luck.
This news from the Vatican could make it happen for him.
Too bad your friend moved to Red State Florida.
Blech!
