THE WIZARD: A Memoir: The Specification of Survival ​"I came into this world as a calculation." ​On April 1st, 1980, I was born premature, weighing exactly 3 lbs and 8 oz. I was a fragile collection of organs and bone that didn't quite meet the factory specifications for birth. That was my first "Green Light"-the moment I hit the target of viability. ​Throughout my life, I would be defined by where I stood in the "system." To understand my story, you have to understand "The Wizard"-the internal operating system I built to survive. While other kids were experiencing "childhood," I was processing Data, Specs, and Sensors. ​This is the record of how a Rank 58 brain survived a Rank 0 environment. It is a journey through "System Failures"-from the loss of my mother and grandmother to the isolated forests of Arkansas and the lawless landscape of the Niland Slabs. ​I learned early on that if you can't control the world, you can at least master the data within it.
