And those fears were all too real in the labs at Etimiz. When Dr. Francis Simoski was not out touring the conference circuit he was busy locked in a lab trying to create his own circuit. That was his main goal in life—to create a circuit… a nanocircuit, one fit for the human body. That was the one piece of the puzzle that was his responsibility, the one piece he knew he could deliver given time, the one piece of the puzzle to make the system a reality and not just a pipe dream—his part of the equilateral triangle. Dr. Simoski’s sleight of hand trick was to step over the boundaries he forewarned his colleagues about and insure the success of his system.

 

Research and development made strides when no boundaries existed in the labs of Dr. Simoski; he was light-years ahead of anyone else in the field, still to this day, his technology is light-years ahead of anyone else. Now it wasn’t all him, it wasn’t all his ingenuity and time and money and hard work and dedication and because of his obligations it couldn’t have been all him; he had help, after all, he owned the company, he told his brain trust, his think tanks, his employees what to do, what to create, what to test, but what he did not tell them was what for or why. Departmentalization was the key to its success. Sure, one or two people very close to the project did ask, and those who did are no longer working for the company, in fact, through some outside intervention, those people are no longer working individuals—in the living and breathing sense. One may have committed suicide based on the pressures of work and marriage and one may have driven off the road coming home from a local bar after spending another Friday night alone. These things happen and one must move along and move along they did—at a rapid pace, at blinding speeds, and mostly under the radar gun of the government and their regulations or basically his regulations.

 

Advancements were made almost on a daily basis. His lab experimented with quantum dots, hydrogen bonding, ionic bonding, nanowires, nanotextured surfaces (a one dimensional object on the nanoscale), nanotubes (two dimensional), nanoparticles (three dimensional), and a whirlwind of other scientific terms well beyond the comprehension of most individuals. They built nanoswitches able to be turned off and on—a common thread with computers and their binary code of ones and zeros but much smaller in scale. They hammered out theories on conductivity with chemical catalysis and super conductors created from carbon and noble metal particles. They pushed the envelope in regards to passing these substances through the human body and even through the blood-brain barrier in order to power them through the central nervous system. This is where the true fears of the people lie, for once inside a living organism, different reactions can take place and they are almost unpredictable. These nanoparticles can accumulate in areas not destined for treatment or analysis, cause inflammation or infections, stress the immune system, or halt or stimulate the natural production of proteins and enzymes. They can be highly mobile, highly volatile, and highly difficult to trace. They can in fact, be highly dangerous within the biological world of the human anatomy but in order to make new strides in the name of science, warnings and cautions are thrown to the wind. Etimiz, the company that made many great strides, never once read the road signs, never once applied the brake pedals, never once looked in the review mirror, they just applied pressure to the accelerator and sped past their competitors.

 

Somewhere on the open deserted road of where nanotechnology meets biology, speeding along well over the limit, Etimiz made a few discoveries and created an invention the world has yet to know—the patent is pending, not that they would ever apply for one. Again, without getting into the nitty-gritty, they were able to generate a signal through the body from an object smaller than a cell. The object in discussion could in theory be called the world’s smallest passive transmitter, passive in the sense that it only transmitted a signal when a signal is received. It contained the most rudimentary components of a transmitter. It contained an oscillator, the circuit that creates a signal, a modulator, the circuit that varies this signal, and a power supply to produce this signal. After the circuitry was mapped for the oscillator, their first major road block was the modulator. In the beginnings, they hard coded the information that was to be transmitted; it was just a single digit number. Over the next few years, the company developed nanoswitches and was able to increase the signal to produce a thirteen digit number, and here’s the kicker, they were able to produce specific number sequences, sort of like a serial number. Their next obstacle was the power supply. They didn’t need New York City power grid type of energy but what they did need was a constant energy source. They had to look within the body itself for fuel. They played around with oxygen and glucose and even tried to use currents from the central nervous systems and the brain to no avail. Then while in Norway at a conference, Dr. Simoski found the answer. His plane flew over a machine sitting in the North Sea. His curiosity piqued when he found out that it was an oscillating water column. This device created energy from the waves of the ocean, from the constant ebb and flow of the tides. The light bulb almost blew it was so bright. There was a constant ebb and flow within the body as well, the blood stream. If only Etimiz could create a miniature version of the OWC, the power supply dilemma would be solved… . it was. On the underbelly of the nano device are fin-like nanoparticles that flex to and fro as the blood cycles pass. The flexing creates energy much like one of those handcarts on the railway tracks that are seen in old movies. That energy is able to produce enough power to generate a signal. This signal or wave was infinitesimal and undetectable to any known listening device made by man but in theory it was there. In order to help detect this signal an amplifier was also needed and created, as a result this invention almost doubled in size but still very small even on the scale of the nano. Even with this mini amplification, the signal was still undetectable.

 

Hearing this signal was indeed the crux of the big picture. The device was useless if it couldn’t be heard; if it couldn’t transmit its data, its series of unique numerical digits, the whole project would be deemed a failure. They couldn’t afford to fail—too much at stake, too many millions would go down the drain, too many man hours would be logged in vain, and too many ideals would go astray. To emphasize, hearing this device was the overall key to the project, to the system. They couldn’t afford to fail. They had to solve this problem, no matter what cost.

 

Like most problems, solutions can be rather difficult to come by at times. Solutions can be found through hard work and dedication, through experimentation and examinations, through simplification and modification, and even by accident or chance in the strangest of places. The amplification was solved through a little bit of all the aforementioned but the big breakthrough came while an Etimiz employee was at home watching the latest blockbuster on Blu-ray. The light bulb was so bright it almost blew. Sitting in the couch and laughing his head off, his wife wondered what was literally so funny. The fact it was so simple was indeed the joke only he understood at that moment.

 

Everyone, including his boss Francis Simoski also got the joke, for they knew they were one step closer to reality, in fact this was the last major roadblock of the project, nothing but open road was ahead of them. So instead of having a mini transmitter and an amplifier combined on a single nanochip, they separated them into two components, much the way high-end audio systems separates the tuner, CD player, or turntable, from the amplifier; then if you need more power just add another amplifier or two or three or four. They just had to find the right ratio of transmitters to amplifiers to support their goal and eventually they did.

 

Yielding enough power to extend the range of a signal beyond the human body, these nanotransmitters and nanoamplifiers are a work of pure genius, not to mention a work of art in their own right to anyone who is privy enough to see them. The sheer beauty of these devices lies not only in their size but to how they interact with one another, how they communicate, thousands of tiny little particles, that cannot be seen by the naked eye or even under a standard microscope, working in conjunction to receive and produce a unique and amplified signal. It is a miracle that they even exist. From his ideals in college, to the papers of theories and proofs in his studies, to their creation within his laboratory, it took little more than twenty years to grasp something tangible, for his/his network’s dream to materialize and the real shocker being—it was only a few million dollars over budget. What he received in return from his prolonged dedication was a product that is profound in every aspect of its existence and not one ounce of recognition, no history book footnotes, no television interviews, no magazine articles, nothing. What he received instead was a power unlike anything man has ever held before.

 

Micro identification tags or nano identification tags or NID’s as they are truly known to inside crowd, are ingrained with a unique serial number so to speak, and can transmit this unique signal to a specific target or scanner. They are small and almost untraceable and they are not known to exist outside the realm of a few privileged individuals. That secret is well kept unlike its big brother, the radio frequency identification tag. The RFID has been touted as the miracle of all time-saving devices. In this day and age the barcode is slowly beginning to be replaced by the RFID chip that is no bigger than a grain of rice. This small device can track packages, cars, and even lost animals and children. It can make shopping a breeze by bypassing the checkout lines. Just stock the grocery cart to the brim, pass under a scanner and every single product’s price is uploaded to the checkout screen almost instantaneously, pay, and then leave—a breeze indeed, except when it comes to bagging, that’s another story. The public is just beginning to react to the endless possibilities of the RFID chips and so has the government. In fact, several states have already placed laws on their books to protect its people from the misuse of RFID’s. The state of Wisconsin was among the first to protect its citizens with Act 482 which states “no person may require an individual to undergo the implanting of a microchip.” It has nothing against the individual who solely permits the implants. A parent may eject a RFID under the skin of their children in order to keep a watchful eye but if the government mandates such a creed then a closer step to an Orwellian society everyone will be. It’s obvious through these laws that the government’s best interest is protecting its people, keeping the privacy pirates at bay but the truth of the matter—it is a mere façade. Now imagine that RFID, that grain of rice, is replaced by hundreds of thousands of these nanotransmitters and nanoamplifiers aka NID’s, being dispersed within the human body without the knowledge of the individual. The possibilities for such devices are endless. Well in actuality, there is only one really good reason for this and the only reason they were devised in the first place. That reason being is for identification purposes—identification without detection. If no one knows of their existence, then no laws can be passed to help protect its people.

 

Unlike its big brother, NID’s are supposed to go unnoticed but just how is this supposed to happen? That’s were STB5 comes into play. The inventor used his cost effective stabilizer, STB5, as the delivery system for the NID’s. Easy to do, his company owns the stabilizer, his company owns the NID’s, his company owns the process of mixing the two and no one is the wiser. Anyone needing a vaccination simply had a small dose of NID’s injected into the blood stream along with the needed vaccine. The only side effect from the several hundred thousand NIDs embedded within the human body is feedback, in other words, just a very faint high pitched sound from time to time when a television or another electronic device is turned on in the same room as the NIDs, otherwise the NIDs are totally harmless and can last a lifetime. Each NID transmits a different signal, each individual package of STB5 has a lot number based on a five digit ASCII code, and each vaccine’s lot number contains the stabilizer’s lot number as well and all this information is stored in a database at Etimiz.

 

Connect this database through an undetectable interface within the IIS database and the power of a system starts to unfold. The IIS database, by law, stores the lot number of the vaccine that was injected into an individual and the best way to identify that individual is through their government identification number aka—social security number. The government has a person’s social security number tied to a vaccine lot number, that vaccine is tied to a stabilizer lot number that contains the NID’s. The NID’s transmit a unique frequency when oscillated by another transmitted wave. Now link this technology with a global positioning system and the worst fears of big brother watching are a reality.

 

History has never seen the likes of this power. The dominance of the Roman Empire, the horrors of Hitler, the thrusts of the Saturn 5 rockets, the destructiveness of the atomic bomb, the winds of Katrina—all are just flashes in the pan, mere child’s play, compared to the power bound by this system. From the moment a person is vaccinated and linked to the IIS database, they can be tracked via the invisible lines of latitude and longitude within this blue marble. Every move calculated and stored. Every move, from their first steps to eventually their final resting place and every step in between is calculated and stored. Every move calculated and stored. There is no hiding. No lying. No secrets. No escaping the eyes of the creators. It’s the power of god’s all-knowing ability stored as ones and zeros in a database.
