A Simple Story of a Not-So-Simple Universe

At The Time Of My Retirement On March 31 2006 I Challenged Myself With A Handful Of Goals. With This Publication All Have Now Been Accomplished. Initially I Did Not Plan To Publish. I Did Plan To Write A Manuscript Or A Story . . . Or Just Write Something About The Universe. I Felt Compelled To Give My Fascination With The Universe Some Sort Of Order Something That Would Punctuate My Life. Upon Completion I Wondered If It Might Have Some Merit To Others And Scoped Out The Thought Of Publication. I Found The Manuscript Very Readable And Relatively Elementary. It Should Prove Interesting To Science Students Of All Levels As Well As All People Interested In The Universe.
