Paralyzed by a 1997 auto accident, J. Perry Kelly twice served as a surrogate spokesperson for the G.W. Bush White House on stem cells issues. He ended his five years of national biotech activism in late 2006 in protest over sharp contrasts between environmental facts concerning global warming and the energy policies and climate change denial of his former social allies. His biotech commentaries can be found online under "James Kelly" in Human Events, National Review, and The Seoul Times. Prior to suffering a spinal cord injury, James worked for twenty years in the rail industry as a diesel electrician, locomotive foreman, signalman, train dispatcher, and an interim assistant transportation manager. His passions included hiking, modern dance, hatha yoga, antique furniture restoration, tai kwon do, and classical music. In addition to working on the final edit of "Quantum Fires: The Sibyl Reborn," a modern retelling of the Cassandra myth from a climate change perspective, James is also mapping a non-fiction expose of psychological strategies used by corporations, politicians, and worldview leaders to preserve profits and control society by seducing our thoughts. He blogs as "QuantumFires" on Wordpress.
