Johnny,
Thank you for returning my call yesterday.
Today, I left you a message that my aunt passed away, and that I will be out
of town the rest of this week.
Last Friday at the Frabel gallery, between photo ops Martin and I had a short
conversation.
I mentioned to him that I am a sixth generation Atlantain, and that the Frabel
gallery had just put on a show of some of my work.

I told Martin that since I am an unknown artist, over the past few years
I have been giving out artwork to those that have inspired me.
I would be honored to present Martin with a gift of one of the peaces that
I created from Frabel glass.
Below is a link to the collection of peaces that were in the Frabel show.

Five years ago, I made a transition out of the computer industry. I took
a shot at the art world. Had the time of my life.
However soon, I am to shift gears again. My passion has inspired me to write
a series of three books.
One book called, "Terminus" set in the time of the civil war.
Telling the story about the five Lynch brothers that helped build the rail
roads of Atlanta.
One of the brothers, Patrick, was instrumental in bringing the Catholic Church
to Atlanta.
There is a stained glass window in the church of Christ the King on Peachtree
giving him tribute.

When Sherman ordered general Slocum to burn Atlanta, my family did not evacuate.
They protected their homes and several churches from the union torch.
One said church is the Immaculate Conception Shrine on MLK across from under
ground.
The Shrine rests of stones quarried and placed by my family.

The second book called, "A Pair of Dimes" basically my auto biography.
My life has become a long strange string of coin incidences. It is like I
am living in a David Lynch, the director, movie.
The events of my life had lead me down a path of discovery that most people
are not even willing to BLeave.

My life revolves around an event on June 19th 1977. I was involved in a serious
auto accident. I crossed over.
The experience has inspired me to created an equation that uses the energy
of Einstein, the force of Newton, and the logic of Socrates to describe a
moment in time.
I call the equation the KnoWell.

The third book called, "Intuition" about a vision of the future.
Since the KnoWell is so radical, I understand that most people may not understand
me until long after I am gone.
That is one of the reasons that I have given out so many gifts.
Each of the abstract prints that I have given out has a hand drawn KnoWell
on the back.
Thus giving the KnoWell equation a better chance to survive. Below is a list
of many of the people that have a KnoWell.

I mentioned to Martin that Dave Chappelle remembered me a year after I gave
him a peace of my work.
That my work makes quite an impression. Below is the peace that I presented
to Dave on June 19th 2006.
It is how I derived the KnoWell equation

I wish not to bore you with the details of my adventure.
Hopefully in the coming weeks, Martin and I will be able to sit down for about
30 minutes.
In a month or so, I am off to write.
