The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is an American children's novel written by author L. Frank Baum and illustrated by W. W. Denslow, originally published by the George M. Hill Company in Chicago on May 17, 1900.

The classic musical fantasy The Wizard of Oz premiered in the US on August 25, 1939, and is still considered one of the greatest films of all time. This year The Wizard of Oz returns to the big screen for its 80th anniversary. Like "Alice in Wonderland" - "The Wizard of Oz"

Crystalinks debuted online August 25,1995.

The WiZard has always been Z to me. The "O" in Oz represents "O" Zero when the dream, illusion, simulation, or whatever creates this reality in time ... comes to an end. The spiraling yellow brick road represent the golden ratio - consciousness creations. The Scarecrow and Cowardly Lion represent Human Emotions. The Emerald City is the color green for healing. The Tin Man represents Alchemy in the illusion of Time. We fell asleep in the poppy (substances) fields - but are getting closer to waking up. The metaphors go on and on ... down the yellow brick road to Oz.

Also of note World War II officially began one week later on September 1, 1939, with the invasion of Poland by Germany and subsequent declarations on Germany by France and the United Kingdom.

World War II opened the doors to time travel experiments and present-day alien adventures paralleling the Nazi's agenda to create the next level of human evolution with alien-human-hybrid biogenetic experiments. After the war those experiments continued with gray alien abductions of humans to create the perfect hybrid - human emotions combined with AI intellect. They concluded in 2007 when the aliens left - leaving behind drones to monitor Earth until closure - so humans don't destroy the planet until the simulation closes forcing the experiment to loop back to WWII.

Just as early humans - such as the Neanderthals phased out of the simulation - so too humans today are evolving into something more that already exists in the grids and timelines. It all ends with the closing of the simulation. Bear in mind the time it's not linear. It moves like a slinky, a funnel, or a spiraling tornado.

Alexander Volkov - June 14, 1891 - July 3, 1977 - was a Soviet novelist, playwright, university lecturer, and author mostly remembered for the Magic Land series of books based on L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. His first book, The Wizard of the Emerald City, is a loose translation of the first Oz book, with chapters added, altered, or omitted, some names changed - for example, "Dorothy" becomes "Ellie" and Oz is renamed "Magic Land". First published in 1939 in the Soviet Union, the book became quite popular. In the 1960s Volkov also wrote his own sequels to the story. He liberally borrowed from some of the originals, such as using the "Powder of Life" idea from The Marvelous Land of Oz, but mostly created a divergent universe. From 1963 to 1970, four more books in the series were published, with the sixth and final story published posthumously in 1982.
