By the way, I owe you a book, JP. I used the Dark Star space station concept in a sci Fi story. I credited you with the idea, and wanted to send you a hard copy. I just never got around to getting the hard copy set up (distractions). I find your work inspiring, and thank you for connecting with people on YouTube and FB .
