Is there more to life? A dialogue on todays search for intelligent life Publisher Description A companion work to Flatland (Sayre/Emberley, 2014), the Dialogues offer meaning, comfort, and direction to a world at risk of losing its faith. From the latest science and our places of greatest striving, an expert on the reduction of entropy offers a reality that is rational, faithful, and hopeful. The inventor of "chirp" FM radio and a standard energy-saving contract, Sayre has formed a dozen companies around the sciences of communication, rehabilitation, and energy. These have made him expert in reducing "entropy," the measure of both decay and ignorance—and that is how scientists would detect intelligent life, anywhere in the universe. Author Biography David Sayre (Dayton) works full-time developing "microgrids" in low-income neighborhoods. He has been called the "father of the industry" at national energy services conferences, has patented and published techniques of communication and energy efficiency that anticipated todays cell phone networks and energy-saving industry, and formed a dozen companiesprofit and nonprofitaround these two sciences that displace "entropy." Sayres work has taken him to places and encounters that few of us experienceprisons and mental institutions, cathedrals and laboratories, the Pentagon and the White House, neighborhoods of the very rich and the very poor. The mix of those encounters with those sciences has suggested a rational moral compass and a way to comfort.
