ATTENTION: Tom Wolfe, the answer to human speech is explained in OOOEELIE.

In the New York Times review of Tom Wolfe’s THE KINGDOM of SPEECH, the author is quoted as asking (in the book): "What is it that has left endless generations of academics, certified geniuses, utterly baffled when it comes to speech?”

Let me offer a simple solution to the mystery encountered by those geniuses: Oooeelie taught men to speak. Oooeelie was a canine being--from a planet in the Sirius system--whose space ship crash-landed on earth tens of thousands of years ago.

I tell the story of OOOEELIE in my novel, available as a free download on Amazon and Smashwords.
