| Author Notes: | David E. Stevens was a Navy commander and engineer. As an F-18 pilot and the Strike Operations officer for the Persian Gulf, his job consisted primarily of planning and executing "disasters." After losing a friend on a low altitude mission, he created and patented a warning system to prevent pilots from flying into the ground. Realizing society is also at risk of "flying into the ground," he became an expert in catastrophic disasters with an advisory board of renowned experts - TED talk: "How Do We Prevent Our Inevitable Extinction?" |
