title: Kinetic Pulse: A Study in Bullet Impact
author: james n. hall
description: About the Author My Grandpa who was a candy maker and could lift 600 lbs. My Grandpa who was part Cherokee took me hunting and fishing. My Grandma who love to cook and loved her grandchildren. My Grandma who spoke Hebrew and five other languages and loved her grandchildren. My Children who have watch me write and teach all their lives. They are evidence of my success. My Grandchildren - - my proudest work. My Wife Julie has helped to write, discuss, theorize, critique, contribute, suggest as my sounding board, more thanks than can be expressed. My Mother believed anything was possible with a sense of humor. My Father bought me a 22 at 12 years of age and a shotgun at 14. I have been interested in mathematical studies since school and eventually used this talent to work in the computer industry as self trained. It was common to see other computer worker as self trained because the school system was way behind the need for the new future literacy. I was a programmer, network administrator, database manager and was a leader in IT management. I am retired from that but find writing a satisfying work more difficult than the previous work. This book is written to preserve the American Way. james n. hall 2014
