Dr. Baulbester is a native of New York. After driving a cab in Manhattan for three weeks during the summer of 1970, he left and moved to California (where he dropped out of community college with a bad case of herpes). The following year, he falsified his diploma and forged recommendations to be admitted to the doctoral program at The University of California at Chino. His study of inmates’ sexual deviancy at the local state penitentiary made him an irrefutable scholar overnight (not to mention a hunk of burning love). He has written a score of books that never went to press, so they are not worth mentioning, but THE ETERNITY PLAN has got to sell or he will lose everything he owns. He is currently an outpatient at the San Diego Clinic for the Unusually Uneasy and under the care of several psychiatrists who actually think they are doing him some good. But what do you care? You’re just reading this to find out if there was any real chance, like the good Doctor says, that science might actually be able to help you live forever. Don't you care about anybody? Or are you just another egotistical self-centered jerk who doesn't deserve to smell Dr. Baulbester’s bupkis. Oh yeah! You say! Well prove it! Start being nice to people. Call your mother and tell her you love her. Call your sisters and brothers, too, and – while you're at it – the last person you insulted, deceived, frightened, or otherwise made feel uncomfortable. Be nice for a change. Make dinner for someone and clean up after by yourself. Maybe then the Ultimate Computer will let you into Heaven.
