I wrote , "Project Anastrophe "back in Sep2008 and with the Fukushima nuclear explosions it is more important today. "In this Sci Fi novel one finds relevancy to our time. We live in a time of possible nuclear war. Oil and other pollutants have caused irreversible damage to our ecosystem. "Project Anastrophe" shows how much worse it could be, and offers hope." A small excerpt from "Project Anastrophe" Ner walked to the center of the room and again placed the little square unit on the floor. Then just as before, it started to project a large city, only this time it looked familiar to everybody in the room. They saw onion domes, Red Square and the Kremlin wall with its towers. The weather was clear and people were going about their business. Mothers were pushing baby buggies in the park and women were sweeping the streets; the city was vibrant and busy, everything was projected three dimensionally and looked so real one felt as if he could walk into the city. Then everything changed dramatically. There was a huge crater right in the middle of the square, and all around the crater and for miles beyond the terrain was flattened and incinerated. Flames and smog rose as if a stream of lava had flooded the whole area. Farther away thousands of buildings were half standing up, others were intact, but doors and windows had been blown away and people of every age lay scattered on the ground. Some were burned beyond recognition, and others were decapitated or dismembered. The pictures were unfolding in front of their eyes. They saw more people out in the country vomiting, looking dazed and confused while, those who could walk, were walking as if they were zombies. The projection continued but this time in addition to a huge crater and the devastated area close to it, there were buildings recognizable by everybody in the room, this time the dismembered bodies littering the streets were Americans and the tragedy unfolding in front of them was their own country---then the projection stopped. For a few seconds there was dead silence in the room; then the President said, "I don't know about you, gentlemen, but I feel sick to my stomach and I am not going to allow this carnage to take place." Norina said, "Gentlemen, may I remind you that what you have seen today is but a small sample of what will be later in the year 2037 when you will be engaged in a nuclear war with China. That war will send humankind hundreds of years back with only a small number of people surviving. Some will live for hundreds of years in biospheres, only to be destroyed again, and this time for good.
