Learning to Drive on the Internet Superhighway

By Harry Jordon

Love and peace driven by cross-cultural weddings and music like those of the Beatles and Pink Floyd of the ’60s is being forgotten in the Twitter and Facebook era of today. Good habits created through wisdom passed down by elders and extended families over breakfast and dinner are being taken over by bad habits being learned on the internet over those same meals.

Special occasions like the 2020 Valentine’s Day was devoted to such extreme internet posts from White House to university students, instead of, say, addressing coronavirus or climate change that one can only wonder what medicine these people take and what is happening within their households and marriages today.

The World Wide Web has become like the Wild West of western books. An equivalent of the coronavirus is also being spread through the internet. Besides affecting our mental health, it is also affecting our planet. What’s remarkable is not how much pollution went down during the pandemic lockdown, but how little. Other factors impacting climate change besides carbon emissions have been discussed in this book. Simulation involving additional households willing to do clinical-trial studies on a larger scale will be needed for the next phase.

Diet, air-conditioning, and the internet may be the most neglected factors as climate change modelers attempt to figure out why events that were supposed to happen eighty years from 2008 are happening today. Besides improving health and wealth of individuals, organizations, and countries, the home-wellness program provided here can help achieve universal health-care coverage for a fraction of what it would cost today. It will also help reduce deficits and extend our planet’s life by another one hundred years.

Drawing on Einstein’s famous e = mc2 equation, the book demonstrates how increase in economic stimulus (c2) is reducing the life (m) of our planet. Scientists and climate change experts are now saying the planet may have only twenty-five years remaining before it becomes uninhabitable. New cross-country models for driving change need. This can be done using 3P simplification for currency tracing for medical tourism. It needs to prevent another pandemic from happening again. It needs to be scalable for an Interstellar movie-type solution since our planet is dying.

Preface

Aglobal crisis has shocked the world. It is causing a tragic number of deaths, making people afraid to leave home, and leading to economic hardship not seen in many generations. Its effects are rippling across the world. Similar to COVID-19, the same description will fit another global crisis pretty soon: climate change. As awful as this pandemic is, climate change could be worse.

Health advocates have said for years that a pandemic was virtually inevitable. The world did not do enough to prepare, and now we are trying to make up for lost time. This is a cautionary tale for climate change, and it points us toward a better approach. Sometimes we get so engrossed in who is right and who is wrong in the digital world, that we forget that humans are just a speck in the context of the vast universe. If we don’t put petty things like politics and wars behind us and find a solution to inhabit other planets or stay under water, we may not have a planet to call home in the next fifty years.

The equivalent of a reboot needs to be done. The constant printing of easy money since 2008 to demonstrate that economy is doing good has caused wrong people to be promoted. What these wizards, who are faking job titles, don’t seem to get (or are refusing to acknowledge) is that in a deficit-run economy, it is basically their children who are funding their payrolls. Same applies to their children and their children’s children. What they are doing for short-term financial gains through deficits is destroying the very longevity of the planet for the next generation that is funding their payroll.

Factory-direct concepts using 3P simplification for currency tracing can help with the reboot. It will allow IRS in the USA and similar tax agencies in other countries around the world to become the equivalent of one payroll system at a country level, using the money that central banks print. By reversing currency flow in this way, the 3P simplification for currency tracing will also allow us to reverse existential threats like terrorism, pandemics and climate change.

Some say that everything in the universe can be simplified to vibratory energy. It can come from the plants you touch when gardening, the feel from the fresh fruits, meat, or bread from the local grocery store, or the energy from a live music concert. Maybe there is some truth to what Tarzan said in his comics, that noise and other pollution has dulled the senses of people living in cities. People who practice martial arts to elevate their sixth sense, do yoga to heighten their chakras, or practice mind-over-matter techniques will say something similar.

This vibratory energy gets amplified as it travels through the internet. Mood swings, anger, and hate can be done by a few to the many that was not possible before the internet. The book provides insight into why smart cities and digital wallets may be increasingly responsible from deviations of hurricanes like Harvey in Texas to others in Florida that veered from path and targeted major cities, to the forest fires in California, Amazon, and Australia, to the 100ºF temp fluctuation in a week in the twin cities of Minnesota. When this simulation was done on a smaller scale, the corrective actions taken such as early evacuation, powering down of smart cities and other components of the multigenerational cross-country wellness home program described in the book, the results have been impressive. Similar AI/ML algorithms have also accurately predicted spread of coronavirus and the weather improvements over cities affected.

Besides the health of people, the health of the plants and animals is also being affected by the internet. The 5G experiment showing birds falling from the sky is just one of many such examples. As products from China and elsewhere have become cheaper, quality has gone down. IT within companies need to start using big data patterns like 3P simplification for currency tracing outlined in this book; otherwise the side effects of IT may start resulting in workers’ compensation and short-term and long-term disability claims from employees, suppliers, and customers alike. These could create lawsuits and losses of a magnitude that even central banks who are the last-resort insurer may not be able to overcome by printing even more money via economic stimulus like they have done since the 2008 depression.

Besides those new to the internet, this book will also be of interest to senior advisers, software programmers, strategy consultants, C-level and board of directors. It will also be of interest to those in IT who have been involved with the creation of the internet. It provides more details on how similar to other deteriorating inputs to the human body such as diet and air-conditioning, these digital inputs (e.g., smartphones, streaming media, and earbuds with bad sound quality) have become responsible for deteriorating outputs (ranging from STEM grades and social conversation skills to the ability to remember things and to differentiate right from wrong) that we see going on today from the highest levels downward in USA and other countries.

Along with diet (Come Alive and We Are the Weather—Saving the Planet Begins at Breakfast are other interesting books on this topic), the internet may be the most neglected factor as climate change modeler’s attempt to figure out why events that were supposed to happen eighty years from 2008 are happening today. All their models are suddenly showing red. The app discussed in this book has shown that besides the holy cities of Mecca-Medina, two other cities in the USA and elsewhere had a temperature lower than the forecast and that they also received much-needed rains during summer month of Ramadan when 25 percent of the world population (Muslims) were doing fasting and extra prayers. It provides additional scientific evidence on Japanese scientist Dr. Masaru Emoto’s experiment showing connection between speaking, music, and water (body and planet both have about the same percentage of water).

Scientific explanations have also been provided. Some of them are based on ancient traditions going back to the Egyptian, Aztecs, and Indus civilizations. For example, the laws of thermodynamics involving the heat transfer coefficient of objects are used to demonstrate the truth behind feng shui’s claim that clutter is bad for individual health as well as the environment. It is also used to demonstrate how the cocktails of food and medicine we are consuming is affecting climate change. Newton’s law of every action has an equal and opposite reaction is also used to demonstrate how the food and medicine we are consuming is affecting climate change via body heat (98.6ºF) given the doubling of world population to seven billion in a mere forty years.

Before the internet, people regularly went to Sunday church dressed up in their very best. Besides prayers, it was also an opportunity to socialize with someone else who held similar values. As parents, they also had a responsibility of seeing their children getting married and living happily ever after. Besides lowering body metabolism and spreading coolness that ones feels in a church even on the hottest days, the Sunday church (or other places of worship based on their faith) provided an opportunity for scouting and socializing activities like these.

Internet has emerged as an alternative to making friends or matchmaking, but it still has a lot of limitations. Similar to other things on the internet, there is a lot of marketing lies and phishing done here also. Things like electronic health records and medical history which can be automatically picked up from every home by postal service vans (similar to how they deliver and take postal mail today) and deposited to say local libraries or banks with the right security and privacy requirements, can help improve this dramatically. It will create opportunities for the right people to meet across different countries and cultures. Diversity is an important component of Darwin’s theory of evolution. More wars have been fought in the name of race, religion, and country than anything else. Doing something like this can also lead to prosperity through peace.

The AI/ML app described here can be used to reduce and reverse problems ranging from STEM decline to the promotions of the wrong people to CEO, CTO and other senior-level positions both in IT, as well as elsewhere. It can be applied equally well in the private sector, academia or government agencies around the world. It can be used to take much faster corrective action when pandemics or natural disasters happen, if not prevent them altogether from happening via simulation.

All these major problems we see today can be traced back to the uncontrolled printing of money that happened during the ’08 financial mortgage crises and which has continued since then. Despite movies like Inside Job and books like John Bogle’s Enough, not one person from Wall Street or the regulatory agencies governing them has yet been sent to prison.

In order to get a driving license for a car, it is necessary to receive classroom training courses followed by car training classes from certified professionals, and then a learner’s permit is given. Strict parental oversight and guidance is recommended before the keys to the car are handed over. Something similar needs to be done before handing over the keys for driving on the internet superhighway.

The growing World Wide Web is creating smart cities with unsmart people. As machines are becoming smarter, people are becoming dumber. This was particularly visible during the Trump administration. It appeared to be happening everywhere from the White House downward in the USA and at similar levels in other countries. It is like Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged happening in real life. Scientists and climate change experts are now saying the planet may have only thirty years remaining before it becomes uninhabitable. What is outlined in this book can help extend our planet’s longevity by another one hundred years.

The multigenerational program provided in this book can be used by countries around the world. In USA, it may very well prompt central banks like Federal Reserve along with Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and other companies involved with the internet to do clinical trials on their own products similar to, say, what automobile and pharmaceutical companies are required to do today. A national IT road map using 3P BPM for currency tracing with MDM standards like Open Group’s UDEF for security and privacy can be used to create one HR, financial, and legal system at a country level. It can be used to reward individuals for changing their behavior and doing the right voluntary work to improve their own health, as well as increase the planet’s longevity. This can be done using the rewards program provided by credit cards, insurances and other financial instruments they own. Prevention is always better than cure. Personalized medicine can also be achieved via this national IT roadmap. It will allow mass customization and automate the entire process of creating electronic health records via IoT (smart chips embedded in teeth, shoes, Band-Aids, and so on). If another coronavirus-type situation happens, it can be caught and corrected without the same level of hospitalizations and deaths involved in New York and other cities. Same if something more complex like say a terrorist attack of Anthrax via water were to occur.

What is outlined here will allow the reversal of currency flow by making state and federal tax agencies the equivalent of one payroll system at a country level. Money can be put into IRAs, 401(k)s, pension plans (or taken out) based on promises made and activities done for going green and based on the results of these promises and activities. Financial aid, for example, can be provided to students in college based on how well they are implementing the home wellness program. The same goes with the payroll for parents raising their children. Just giving away $1,000 per month as some Silicon Valley advocates proposed to offset AI and robotics concerns or extended unemployment income to bail out the economy does not mean that money will be used properly.

Factory direct concepts will ensure that the money printed by central banks goes straight to the individual citizen who has done an honest day’s work, without the huge number of intermediaries that exist today. All these intermediary organizations from banks onward were created well before the internet and are basically duplicating work. They don’t really need to exist doing the same functions today while taking a cut from every single financial transaction. Using factory direct concepts, a bidirectional flow (i.e., deposits and withdrawals) can also happen in payroll, bonus, retirement, and pension plans as needed. Smart glass technologies can be used to ensure that similar to an athlete whose performance is visible to everyone on TV, performance of any worker or politician can be monitored for pay being provided.

AI/ML tools can be used to ensure honest work is done for an honest day’s pay for all, including those in governance positions. If money had been deposited based on wrong promises or showing someone else’s work as one’s own, that money can be taken back. This applies to all functional areas from sales and marketing to research and development to manufacturing and delivery. There is no need to keep on printing money whenever a problem like the coronavirus arises.

The app shown here will also ensure people try products on themselves and their families first before selling them to others. Demonstrating how it has helped them before selling it to others will reduce junk and solve about 80 percent of the problems that company and country presidents wrestle with today. Information being collected for security requirements can also be used for health and process monitoring. Vibration-powered batteries and biometrics can be used to have ID badges, jewelry, masks or currency using UDEF data standards to do remote blood monitoring when a pandemic like coronavirus happens, with the right security and privacy requirements.

When people discuss green energy today, they are talking about the various means by which electricity is produced. In Einstein’s famous equation, energy does not imply electricity only. In my college days, for example, there used to be constant debates on which is better: mechanical engineering or electrical engineering. Both are needed. Sound of music for example can be done with both. There is increasing evidence that electricity itself (not the means by which electricity is produced) is not truly green energy. None of the cities where I have implemented the multigenerational home wellness program outlined here with family and friends in both USA and abroad have witnessed the type of natural disasters, shootings in schools or places of worships, or level of pandemics that other cities have seen since 2008. This implementation had involved partnering with programs that were already in place like FIRST Robotics, NASA, Scouts, and PTA. It has involved family, friends and alumni networks. It has involved local schools, universities, gyms, food, clothing, medical facilities, and shelters, including places of worship.

The cutting of ties to natural resources like gold, the complacency with deficits, and the overproduction of money by central banks after the ’08 financial economic crises is reducing our planet life. It is doing the equivalent of killing the goose that is laying the golden egg. The debt engine created around the world using the current way of currency printing and circulation has also created the equivalent of modern-day slavery. Even senators and board-of-director-level people know what they are doing is wrong. They are unable to look at their own family members in the eye, yet they continue down that path. The greed and corruption being generated by the overproduction of the proverbial apple (money) is rapidly destroying paradise and the only place we can call home for now.

For those just entering the workforce from school, what is outlined in this book can be considered the equivalent of keeping notes like one did in school for different subjects. This is the equivalent of keeping notes for timesheets, expense reporting, and tax purposes. Thomas Jefferson, Mahatma Gandhi, and many other great people used to keep diaries. It was much more common before the advent of the internet for remembering things. Smart glass technologies with UDEF will eventually be able to automate the creation of electronic health records from say remote blood monitoring, but until then 3P simplification diary writing techniques like those outlined in this book can be used to keep the equivalent of Star Trek-type captain’s logs. Keeping notes also has meditational value in today’s world where we are constantly being bombarded by phone calls, e-mails, and text messages. Some people call this digital detox.

During the ’60s, plastics was the hottest field to get into. It is just now that we are learning about all the negative effects of it, including cancer. Internet is the hottest field today, but we appear to be ignoring its side effects. Similar to smoking, we are discovering its side effects but have become so addicted that we ignore the labels on directions for use even though it harms us.

Deep learning is one of the hottest topics in AI/ML today. Deep neural networks imply there are multiple layers between input and output nodes. Besides sight, people tend to recognize objects from taste, smell, feel also. If UDEF-based layers that support other senses besides vision are added to the neural network, the accuracy of recognition increases. These UDEF-based labels on products, including US currency, are a little more expensive to manufacture than the cheap ones coming from China. But it can also do the equivalent of retina scan to ensure that person is wearing a mask before, say, payment is processed using the coronavirus stimulus money being printed.

During the coronavirus pandemic, Congress and Senate continued to approve trillion-dollar stimulus to people who did not wear masks or follow social distancing guidelines. This caused spikes and further risk from coronavirus to those following the guidelines, especially the sick and elderly. Even babies less than one-year-old were affected. Billions more have been given away to people who were already dead or were not supposed to receive the stimulus money. Per the 1996 Clinger-Cohen Act, these people in US Treasury, Congress and Senate can be sent to prison for faking job titles. This applies not just to them but everyone else being paid with taxpayers’ money in USA.

Maybe there is some truth behind the claims of a World Bank whistleblower saying there is a mafia-like cartel of central bank leaders who have used the easy money they have been printing to put their own people in some of the most powerful positions in world. This includes presidents of companies and countries alike. As a society, we have deteriorated significantly since the early days of DARPA when the internet was invented with military funding. Internet companies are being manipulated by the very countries against whom a better defense was needed, and which was a primary driver of the initial internet funding from DARPA. Manipulation of elections in US and other countries which in turn is threatening democracy are examples of that. Fake photos and videos have become so commonplace that people are unable to differentiate between truth and lies anymore.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning that were supposed to have created the capability to, say, provide smell with a photo in panoramic mode from a smartphone with multiple lenses or detect a disease from a similar X-ray or photo still haven’t happened. Instead AI/ML is being used for deepfake. Since advertising dollars is what drives internet company business models (not customer care), we have no correlation between what a company markets and what its product actually does. Companies are using fake photos and medicines that are further accelerating the very problems they were supposed to prevent. Price can no longer be used as a criterion for whether a product is of good quality. Wealth is no longer a measure of whether the president of a company or country has the type of leadership abilities that capitalism of the ’60s required. Online shopping has created zombies who cannot get away from their computers, smartphones, and tweets.

In countries like the USA, the internet may have allowed an increase in the utilization rates of its citizens. However, that increase in efficiency has not translated into effectiveness. Over 98 percent of millennials are now suffering from burnout. Economic stimulus is like giving an electric shock to a person who is sick in the hope of a fast recovery (rise in the stock market), when what that person needs is rest for long-term recovery. Similar to machines, people are breaking down more often. Besides cybersecurity breaches, health care, and climate change, costs to the economy are rising as these utilization rates continue to increase.

Some people say that after pandemics and climate change, bench strength of next generation in internet skills is the greatest security threat nations face. One billing and tracking system for areas ranging from medical tourism to cross-cultural marriages can be used to overcome these challenges. Prosperity through peace can be achieved. While doing Navy at my Jesuit high school outside USA, we were taught that a ship is safe in the harbor, but that is not what a ship is intended for. This book is not intended to keep the next generation safe in the harbor by staying away from internet. It is an attempt to help them navigate the choppy waters of the internet.

Chapter 1

My high school was founded by some amazing Jesuits from Germany and Switzerland. I remember having learned about the Navy for two years while in school. This was for creating the needed bench strength, given all the things going on in the country after it got its independence.

Those Navy years in school taught me several important things. Discipline and time management were probably the two biggest ones. This is how besides acing my tests and exams, I was also able to represent my school in several sports and win gold medals for track and field events like high jump. Now that I look back after spending thirty-plus years in USA and seeing what my kids are learning in USA schools today, there are several other things that also stand out. Two of them are likely to create controversy, but I’ll mention them nevertheless.

Breakfast was a very important component of the morning routine while growing up. After waking up, we had to go to the toilet to clean the inside of our body. Then we walked across our terrace (sunlight) to reach our kitchen. Fresh food gotten daily—milk, eggs, honey, tea, and others—was part of the breakfast. Just as the home was considered a temple and everything inside had to be kept clean, same with body. No garbage could be put inside, hence the attention to breakfast. After finishing that, we had to take a shower, put on clean, ironed uniforms, and go to school. By 8:15 a.m., we were in school so that we could do about forty-five minutes of track and field games before school began at 9:00 a.m.

Our school began with a morning assembly. It consisted of prayers (similar to how one prays at home for their morning bread, regardless of religion), singing the school anthem (similar to how the Army, Navy, and Air Force have their own anthems to energize them) and the national anthem (similar to how people sing at, say, the Super Bowl).

The reason I mention this is because a full three hours would pass since we woke up before we dug into our internet, namely, our study books. Regardless of whether people agree or not on the morning routine mentioned above, shortening/eliminating these important things so that kids can have more time on internet and social media as soon as they wake up benefits no one. By the time they open their study books in the morning, the mind is already exhausted.

Three healthy meals at regular times needs to be added to the Early to bed, early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy, and wise proverb. Other traditions passed down from ancient times, like dressing properly to avoid falling sick from sudden changes in the weather and using the right colors to set a good mood are as important. Clothes were invented thousands of years before medicine to help people feel good and stay healthy. Black, for example, used to be associated with mourning in ancient times. People in deserts wore white because it helped keep them cooler in the summer heat since white reflects while black absorbs. Try using more white colors in the house to keep it cool. This includes things like running shoes and garbage bags. Food, clothing, and shelter are the three basic necessities of life. If during winter you wear T-shirt, the chances of falling sick increases when you step out into the cold from a heated home. Why dress improperly and take flu shots just because the latter may be free?

Consider these factors when being bombarded with advertisements on the free internet. For example, why start your day with coffee and texting on a smartphone? As a baby, the first thing you had was milk, and the first thing you did was speak. Millions of years of evolution have gone into creating humans. Try beginning your breakfast with milk and cereal. A2 cows, for example, are considered Vedic cows with healing properties. Try raw milk from A2 cows and keep journals that can be used to understand its beneficial effects like I’ve explained in later chapters. Take tea or coffee later in your breakfast sequence. You may find this works better. Every person is unique. Don’t let the internet fool you. Searches—whether on Google, YouTube, Netflix, or Facebook or among your friends—do not necessarily bring up the right thing. Experiment with things you have ignored because you considered them insignificant. Our body is equivalent to an extremely fine-tuned machine, more advanced than any computer out there on the internet. It asks for very basic and simple inputs like food, clothing, shelter, travel, music, and prayers. Choose them carefully. For example, why should black be always a fashionable color to wear just because fashion designers say so? What were the colors in the paintings or architecture from the museums and cities with a rich history that you have visited and which gave you goose bumps? Try clothes with those color combinations after your morning shower. Wearing clothes that are not too tight and colors other than black will also reduce the need to keep air-condition to a low like 72ºF when 76ºF will suffice. As shown in later chapters, this small change in air-condition setting when done by a large population also helps reduce global warming.

Keeping gyms, restaurants, and other places very cold with air-condition also reduces the amount of sweat which is needed during these activities. The lack of sweat and extra cold via air-condition also causes extra body fat. Just because today’s gyms market their advanced aerobic routines and don’t say anything about jogging or swimming, doesn’t mean it is not as good. Swimming provides a natural cooling of the body heat being given out every second to maintain its temperature at 98.6°F. In ancient times, people used to take a dip in water for religious and meditation purposes. The American Indian water walker in the USA, for example, takes water from the beginning of the Mississippi and pours it where it ends near the ocean a few miles below New Orleans. Later in this book, I go into more details why activities such as these are not only beneficial from a health perspective but also address environmental issues like increasing weather fluctuations and planet longevity.

Tea, for example, is the most popular drink in the world after water. It is said to have been discovered in 2737 BC by Emperor Shen Nung when some tea leaves accidently blew into his pot of hot water. For centuries it was used as a form of money and to pay tribute. It is also central to China’s three great schools of philosophical thought. Confucius taught that tea could help people understand their inner dispositions. Buddhists believe that drinking tea is one of the four ways to concentrate the mind—along with walking, feeding fish, and sitting quietly—to help link people to the realms of meditation.

Travel is a wonderful way of finding cures for health problems. I had this back problem that no medicines had been able to cure. A couple of days of swimming in Valencia, Spain, and it hasn’t come back. It has been over two years now. Must be the cooler water temperature and minerals there. Travel does not imply it has to be to an exotic city in another continent. It could be going to the garden in your backyard and taking care of it in case it is neglected. Both Feng shui and Vastu Shastra speak about the importance of gardens and keeping them clean. If the piece of wood in the doorframe that you step on every day when walking to your car from your home is rotting, take care of it. Use good-quality wood like African mahogany. People hug trees for similar reasons. According to Darwin’s theory of evolution, we lived in the ocean and trees before moving to present-day homes. So why not have water fountains and plants that are well taken care of in our modern day homes?

Similar to my back pain disappearing after swimming in Valencia, Spain mentioned above, I’ve had other ailments disappear without requiring any western medicine during my trips to certain parts of India. This is worth highlighting as one year of the worldwide corona virus pandemic has passed and analysis can now be done on the data collected.

While developed countries like USA and UK continued to have record waves in corona virus surges, India waves went in the opposite direction. This was even before their efficient vaccination distribution program both within the country and charity giving to poorer neighboring countries began to happen. Several theories have been put forth regarding why India had such a low death rate per capita, even though it is the most densely populated democratic country in the world.

One that has not been discussed as much is the higher immunity in general that Indians appear to have compared to their counterparts in USA and UK. The average Indian does not have the amount of money as their western counterparts do to spend on western medicines, vitamins and so on. Their homes are not as cluttered either, since they treat their homes as places of worship and prayer much more.

Hawaii which exemplifies some of these traits in
