  The generation structure in the quark and lepton spectrum is explained as
originating from the excitation spectrum S_n of SU(2)_W doublet scalar fields,
whose ground state S_1 is the Standard Model Higgs field. There is only one
basic family of SU(2)_W doublet left-handed fermions, nu_L, e_L, u_L, d_L,
whose bound states with S_n manifest themselves as the generations of
left-handed quarks and leptons. Likewise, there is only one basic family of the
right-handed fermions, nu_R, e_R, u_R, d_R, which combine with the gauge
invariant scalar fields G_n to produce the right-handed quarks and leptons of
the second and higher generations. There are only four Yukawa coupling
constants, G_nu, G_e, G_u, and G_d, and all quark and lepton masses are
proportional to them. Suppression of flavor changing neutral currents (GIM
mechanism) is automatic. nu_mu and nu_tau are expected to be massive.
