    Donald H Sullivan

    I'm a native Floridian, retired from the US Army, I started writing in the army, mostly training and tech manuals. Boring stuff, but it whetted my interest in writing. I've written sci-fi, thrillers, mysteries, humor, fantasies, horror, and more. I'm now living in NC. While in the army, I served in air defense artillery, military intelligence, and psychological operations. I also worked in Federal Civil Service as a quality assurance specialist, ammunition surveillance. I love writing, reading, most kinds of music, and animals--especially dogs.

This large ball is one of eight planets that revolve around the sun, and as you have probably guessed, the ball is Planet Earth as it was billions of years ago.

    There was a time when it was as lifeless as all the planets, moons, and other bodies making up the Solar System.

    According to the scientific explanation, there were bodies of water, perhaps ponds, that were made up from some sort of primordial soup and from that soup some sort of life emerged. Now granted, there was water on Earth, but bear in mind that all water that was on Earth at that time was as sterile as everything else on the planet.

    Volcanic ash or any other ingredients that might have gotten into those bodies of water were also sterile, as was everything else on the face of the earth.

    But scientists must have an explanation for everything, so the best thing they could come up with was the primordial soup theory. Over time, chemical reactions resulted in the spontaneous emergence of a simple
