Scott,
Thank you so much for your amazingly forward looking reflections which fully resonate with me!
The new potential of combining fundamental disciplines (Philosophy, Psychiatry, Psychology, Technology, Sciences, Leadership, Virtuality) as part of a valuable WUaS PhD program focusing on efficient open-minded collaboration in most meaningful human ways sounds & feels fascinating to me.
Perhaps we can try moving from a ‘let’s wait and see’ mode to a much more proactive ‘connect, explore, experiment’ with enthusiasm for developing a Virtual Lab environment, similar to the space station research activities where hundreds of people assist the people who carry out the experiments. Such a virtual lab environment could also provide a ‘bootstrapping’ platform where avatar bots and people from all over the world begin to collectively learn from each other in interesting new ways.
Since Avatars offer a 24/7 operating mode, time zone constraints or language barriers, for example, could be more easily mitigated. People could query ‘Avatar Clones’ and get a quick update on the progress being made during other people’s interactions with the virtual lab environment. The JOY of sharing and helping with ideas, skills and knowledge with others could also create a paradigm shift in moving away from self-centered success in learning. Any more thoughts on this emerging on your side, Scott?
Warmest regards,Fritz

Dear Betsy, and John,
thanks for your email, and for reaching out too, Betsy. My mother may know Liz Perkins, but I don't recall her from when I sang in the 1st Pgh UU choir there in 2006-2007 (during when my father had a brain injury). Having also sung in the UU Choir in Palo Alto about 4 years ago, I only knew of one person from the 1st UU Church of Pgh there. Ma, Betsy sends a warm hello to you and Liz Perkins at the 1st UU Pittsburgh :-)
Since John and I have both visited Harbin some, Harbin Hot Springs, my Actual-Virtual ethnographic & STEM field site, became a first church, first in 1975 (HCC, and not affiliated with any others) after you would have been there, John, (and a 2nd church which ordains ministers in 1996, NACOB), but it may have been a bit of a hippy tax dodge as a church in CA, in my interpretation, too. Any recollections of HCC from your role at the Record-Bee in Lakeport? Soaking in the warm pool, however, there (some call it a sanctuary) is wondrous - and has parallels too with un-programmed Quaker Friends' Meeting regarding (what I'll call as a de facto relaxation response) meditation, deeply communal, connecting, cleansing, and releasing ... and informs aspects of my ethnographic interpretation of Harbin's alternative cultures or discourses. Hoping to facilitate this virtually in a realistic virtual Harbin even.
John, David Thurston, with whom I've visited Harbin (about 10 yrs ago, and who also visited me in Canyon CA 94516, from which I've recently moved into 'safe house') says he's in communication with your brother Bill, fellow Wesleyanite, in DC, he just wrote ... (And I hope CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, of which I'm sure he head, will also emerge from CC-3 Yale OpenYaleCourses - oyc.yale.edu/ - and per WUaS Monthly Business Meeting process, eg - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/06/yellow-billed-stork.html?m=0). Please let UUs and contacts know of these online free-to-students' PhD and 4yr Bachelor degree opportunities, Betsy and John (emerging from MIT OCW's ~2400 courses first in English.
Betsy, the MacLeod's Piney's house and garden are gradually growing in beauty this year, :) after the autumn, winter & spring past. Cuttyhunk's beauty comes into conversation with this process :)
Friendly regards, ScottPSCan't go up to the Harbin pool area here yet, but you can Visit the Harbin Gatehouse in Google Street View here, and 'walk' down the road a spell,l too, and also walk around Middletown ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg (accessible from ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~)
PPS John, are you somehow in communication with the Lake County Record-Bee or Harbin people today ? Could the Record-Bee possibly help even grow a #RealisticVirtualHarbin for history, and journalism, and for visiting virtually too!
Here again are some related #Hashtags Harbin regards - https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1401252415051997185?s=19 - and a picture from about just before it burned down recently. Was this anything like what you recall when you visited there in the 1980s?

[NTF-talk] Anti-Racism and July 4
These are short audio clips from NPR. Interesting.

Frederick Douglass' Descendants Read From 'What To The Slave Is The Fourth Of July?'
Bill

Thanks Bill, Non-theist Quakers, NtFs, friends, All,Interesting ...
Searched in the Swarthmore College -Global Nonviolent Action Database
-on the following, all of whom dealt Non-Violently in one way or another with racism:
Mandela -
Martin Luther King Jr -https://nvdatabase.swarthmore.edu/search/node?keys=Martin+Luther+King+Jr
Gandhi -
Ahimsa -(No results yet found for this Sanskrit word, I think)
Am curious too how videos of these teachers of nonviolence for example herein & elsewhere could inform avatar bots as eventual teachers of nonviolence re the Friends' Testimonies about anti-racism and peace ( and understanding sociocultural context too, as an anthropologist newly in an interactive realistic virtual earth for history, and regarding my Actual-Virtual Harbin Hot Springs Ethnographic project too)
As I was writing the ideas below to some friends this morning about creating or bringing alive avatar bots of people now deceased, for interactive conversation and learning, ... I think I'd like to further focus MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School's students on these teachers of color of non-violence and anti racism in their explorations of creating avatar bots with natural language processing (NLP) chat bots > avatar bots (in addition to developing WUaS in all 7139 known living languages as wiki schools closed r people to people teaching and learning, and esp. re anti racism questions.

PSNtFs,
How could all of these Avatar Bots, including the people in the links you shared further, teach anti-Racism and non violence in a developing single realistic virtual earth (am thinking Google Street View with Time Slider with TensorFlow AI with Translate )?
Have NtFs lost Barbara Forrest Ball in Oregon from these NtF emailings? I think she may be one of the few people of color I know of among NtFs.

* Ma, Sandy,
61F and I like it!
3 layers of clothes on top, And probably the first time I've worn covered shoes for warmth in 13 months or more basically
Out on the deck for a salad dinner, the wind is from the NE - & MORE STORM IS BREWING - and at a healthy clip, 18 knots or so (more than a familiar 12 knots on August afternoons out of the SW, good for Laser sailboat sailing (hav you sailed a Laser recently, Sandy? :)
Some Canadian geese are staying out of the wind in Moon River, for attractive ng between Joe Slate's island and Cuttyhunk in front of the Schencks' house ...
How were your days, Ma and Sandy, and how's the weather in your worlds :)
Nice to see and talk with many old friends at Jim Lovell's memorial, John Tabor, Charles Field, Jim Conway in passing, Serena Hall, Peggy, Matt, and Becky Lovell, Tubby Fields, and Robin Younger, - and be in the lovely quiet solace of Piney's House (when & if my kids come along, will likely no longer be so quiet:) ... To play my bagpipes momentarily, after a hot chocolate :)
Love, Scott

Ma & Sandy,
Will water tomatoes every few days ... Heavy rain night before last gave them nourishment, Taoist-wise too.
Saw Seth at Jim Lovell's and I think he'll get his crew to work on our yard soon~ish ...
The wifi signal SculptureMajors appears to have stopped working after 4 days yesterday evening (& may be part of Grant's wifi) ... Will seek to set up a hotspot thru my smartphone next ... glad my computer had saved the SculptureMajors' password.

Ma, Sandy,
I ran into number of UUs at Jim Lovell's service, including John Tabor and Carolyn Powers (see related below) ... To David and John ....
Love, Scott
David,
good to see you at Jim Lovell's memorial - nice remembrance, esp. by his children. Are you leaving on the Cuttyhunk Ferry tomorrow at 3?
Turns out John Tabor visited Harbin Hot Springs some in the first half of the 1980s. Small world ... (see below) ...
Are you in touch with Wesleyan grad Bill Tabor much in DC? (My mother's 1st cousin, John Briscoe, whose wife Kate I stayed with in NE Connecticut on Sunday, was also a Wesleyan alum :)
Cheers,
Scott
John,
great to talk with you at Jim Lovell's memorial on Cuttyhunk, and to learn also that you had visited Harbin Hot Springs in the first half of the 1980s ...
When again were you the editor or similar of the Record Bee newspaper - https://www.record-bee.com/ - in the city, nearby-to-Harbin, of Lakeport in Lake County, CA? 1981-1985 did you say? Are you in communication by any chance with Record Bee or Harbin people to this day? The Founder of Harbin, Ishvara, or Bob Hartley visited Cuttyhunk in the 1950s I think and knew Jim and Flora Lovell too I recall learning. Did you ever communicate with them about all of this :)?
Am seeking for people to visit virtual Harbin Hot Springs ... And anywhere on earth too ... Whenever year they'd like to, in a realistic virtual earth / Harbin -
Think Google Street View with Time Slider, Maps, Earth, in ever unfolding AI dimensionality, and for STEM and ethnographic research too -
Visit the Harbin Gate House here in Google Street View ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg (accessible from~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~)
Seeking too to publish my second Harbin Ethnographic book from text in the sidebar from here too - http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg + both to paper, and in a digital format, in many languages eventually.
Nice to visit with you and Carolyn Powers esp at the Cuttyhunk Church ... My mother in Pittsburgh is active in the 1st UU Church there, - and please give my regards to Betsy, your UU Minister wife. :) Any interest in visiting Harbin again virtually, and in the 1970s & 1980s perchance and for visiting, for history, and journalism too?
Here are some related #Hashtags Harbin regards -
https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/stat... - and a picture from about just before it burned down recently. Was this anything like what you recall when you visited there in the 1980s?
Best & Friendly regards, Scott

I was glad to see tomatoes growing on the deck a couple of weeks ago and, whenever walking by, imagine taking on the weeding of your mother’s flower garden. Please do tell her and pass along a warm hello to her and Liz Perkins at the 1st UU Pittsburgh :-)~ With warm regards, Betsy

Dear Betsy, and John,
thanks for your email, and for reaching out too, Betsy. My mother may know Liz Perkins, but I don't recall her from when I sang in the 1st Pgh UU choir there in 2006-2007 (during when my father had a brain injury). Having also sung in the UU Choir in Palo Alto about 4 years ago, I only knew of one person from the 1st UU Church of Pgh there. Ma, Betsy sends a warm hello to you and Liz Perkins at the 1st UU Pittsburgh :-)
Since John and I have both visited Harbin some, Harbin Hot Springs, my Actual-Virtual ethnographic & STEM field site, became a first church, first in 1975 (HCC, and not affiliated with any others) after you would have been there, John, (and a 2nd church which ordains ministers in 1996, NACOB), but it may have been a bit of a hippy tax dodge as a church in CA, in my interpretation, too. Any recollections of HCC from your role at the Record-Bee in Lakeport? Soaking in the warm pool, however, there (some call it a sanctuary) is wondrous - and has parallels too with un-programmed Quaker Friends' Meeting regarding (what I'll call as a de facto relaxation response) meditation, deeply communal, connecting, cleansing, and releasing ... and informs aspects of my ethnographic interpretation of Harbin's alternative cultures or discourses. Hoping to facilitate this virtually in a realistic virtual Harbin even.
John, David Thurston, with whom I've visited Harbin (about 10 yrs ago, and who also visited me in Canyon CA 94516, from which I've recently moved into 'safe house') says he's in communication with your brother Bill, fellow Wesleyanite, in DC, he just wrote ... (And I hope CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, of which I'm sure he head, will also emerge from CC-3 Yale OpenYaleCourses - oyc.yale.edu/ - and per WUaS Monthly Business Meeting process, eg - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/202...). Please let UUs and contacts know of these online free-to-students' PhD and 4yr Bachelor degree opportunities, Betsy and John (emerging from MIT OCW's ~2400 courses first in English.
Betsy, the MacLeod's Piney's house and garden are gradually growing in beauty this year, :) after the autumn, winter & spring past. Cuttyhunk's beauty comes into conversation with this process :)
Friendly regards, Scott
PS
Can't go up to the Harbin pool area here yet, but you can Visit the Harbin Gatehouse in Google Street View here, and 'walk' down the road a spell,l too, and also walk around Middletown ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg (accessible from ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~)
PPS
John, are you somehow in communication with the Lake County Record-Bee or Harbin people today ? Could the Record-Bee possibly help even grow a #RealisticVirtualHarbin for history, and journalism, and for visiting virtually too!
Here again are some related #Hashtags Harbin regards -

I see we connected in 2012 here -

Would you like to become the CEO of the WUaS Corporation ahead?
Here are the Agenda items for the WUaS Corporation - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/20... (at bottom) - for the 6/19/21 Monthly Business Meeting.
With Google's opening of their first NYC retail store recently, WUaS seeks to build out in WUaS GDocs for an academic press with machine translation into all 7,129 languages for books printed to paper, and into our physical-digital, actual-virtual bookstores, computer stores, robotics' stores, and hospital technologies' distribution centers in each of 200 countries and all languages ... in what ways could this dovetail with your company's focus on parents getting books and supplies for their children, I wonder?

*Dear Scott ~ I appreciate your reaching out. Thank you!
I was glad to see tomatoes growing on the deck a couple of weeks ago and, whenever walking by, imagine taking on the weeding of your mother’s flower garden. Please do tell her and pass along a warm hello to her and Liz Perkins at the 1st UU Pittsburgh :-)~ With warm regards, Betsy

Dear Betsy, and John,
thanks for your email, and for reaching out too, Betsy. My mother may know Liz Perkins, but I don't recall her from when I sang in the 1st Pgh UU choir there in 2006-2007 (during when my father had a brain injury). Having also sung in the UU Choir in Palo Alto about 4 years ago, I only knew of one person from the 1st UU Church of Pgh there. Ma, Betsy sends a warm hello to you and Liz Perkins at the 1st UU Pittsburgh :-)
Since John and I have both visited Harbin some, Harbin Hot Springs, my Actual-Virtual ethnographic & STEM field site, became a first church, first in 1975 (HCC, and not affiliated with any others) after you would have been there, John, (and a 2nd church which ordains ministers in 1996, NACOB), but it may have been a bit of a hippy tax dodge as a church in CA, in my interpretation, too. Any recollections of HCC from your role at the Record-Bee in Lakeport?
Soaking in the warm pool, however, there (some call it a sanctuary) is wondrous - and has parallels too with un-programmed Quaker Friends' Meeting regarding (what I'll call as a de facto relaxation response) meditation, deeply communal, connecting, cleansing, and releasing ... and informs aspects of my ethnographic interpretation of Harbin's alternative cultures or discourses. Hoping to facilitate this virtually in a realistic virtual Harbin even.
John, David Thurston, with whom I've visited Harbin (about 10 yrs ago, and who also visited me in Canyon CA 94516, from which I've recently moved into 'safe house') says he's in communication with your brother Bill, fellow Wesleyanite, in DC, he just wrote ... (And I hope CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, of which I'm sure he head, will also emerge from CC-3 Yale OpenYaleCourses - oyc.yale.edu/ - and per WUaS Monthly Business Meeting process, eg - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/202...). Please let UUs and contacts know of these online free-to-students' PhD and 4yr Bachelor degree opportunities, Betsy and John (emerging from MIT OCW's ~2400 courses first in English.
Betsy, the MacLeod's Piney's house and garden are gradually growing in beauty this year, :) after the autumn, winter & spring past. Cuttyhunk's beauty comes into conversation with this process :)
Friendly regards, Scott

John, are you somehow in communication with the Lake County Record-Bee or Harbin people today ? Could the Record-Bee possibly help even grow a #RealisticVirtualHarbin for history, and journalism, and for visiting virtually too!

Hi John,
Thanks for the info. Harbin is fascinating socio-culturally as an alternative countercultural place in my interpretation - "hippy to the hot springs" is part of my book's ethnographic thesis - in that founder Ishvara / Bob Hartley gets the property in 1972, and significantly informs its culture possibly by outlasting everyone else there, and he's still around I think.
In what ways could we all create the "Harbin experience" virtually (with Google Street View with time slider & AI) - and for even STEM brain research of enjoyment, bliss and meditation, as brainwave headsets' chip technologies develop? And in so many ways ... Via ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy a new social theory and method - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/sea... ?
Great to be in communication 🙂 and thanks.
Regards, Scott

Ma,
Saw David off on the boat at 3, in a downpour just now ... Matt Lovell and Liz School his wife and Robin Wilder were all there, and almost no one else, except for the people who jumped off the gas dock in the high waves and wind ... I think David helped to create a have a good July on Cuttyhunk for me - "Enjoy the month here" - :) somehow ... Good to have heard back from John Tabor too, that he was the publisher of a small newspaper near Harbin from 1981-1986 and went to Harbin some :)
Appreciating these aspects of Harbin
"meditation, deeply communal, connecting, cleansing, and releasing" (only in some ways, since it's commune or communality is pretty dysfunctional) ... Search on the 'communal' word here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/07/roseate-tern.html?m=0 - for a bit further context ... But am even wondering how to create these good aspects in a virtual Harbin visitable from home ...
Sorry David had to go ... And glad to be on beautiful Cuttyhunk :)
Love,
Scott

Hi Ma, and Sandy,
That back porch rug really brightens things up out there ... but since we're now supposed to be getting about 3 days of rain (thunder and lightning are no longer in the forecast) beginning this PM, I may wait to put out the green and blue and orange rug until after the rains end. Weather is so changeable too! Oh, but lightning on the laptop screen, not the smartphone screen, is still forecasted for today - https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/us/ma/cuttyhunk/02713 ....
And your HOME, Ma, in Verona, PA, is so lovely! .... and spacious, and the sun room makes for such a nice sleeping space, - and even in winter, I understood you, to say! Thank you for your wonderful hospitality, and it was so nice to see you these past few days!
As I type the day seems to be getting cooler, although 79F was forecast earlier ... as if rain could be imminent.
David Thurston is coming over this afternoon around 2:30 I'm glad to write ... it's been a long time since the 1970s when I used to head over to the Thurston's house, Goggy's house (his grandmother Peg, I think), and knock on the bunk room door next to their basement garage, to see if David is there to play tennis (or go sailing). We may head out for a walk to the West End, or talk here. (Thanks, Ma, for suggesting asking him when there might be some good times to meet on the beach, per his suggestion of a meeting place:).
I bet the brown bathing suit is here in Piney's House, and close to right under my nose, but I'm somehow blind, and am not yet finding it. Could be helpful if it doesn't rain, and David and I walk out to soak in West End Pond in warm-ish water (not yet with digital masks ... of a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs -

Time to do some laundry and sweep the floors, after playing my Scottish small pipes first!
Post the non-SARSCov2 non-epidemic of the past many months (March 2020 to now ... ) ... which may have been helpful for getting data useful for reversing global warming even in the 15 months of downing the airline industry, and the car travel industry ... Perhaps we can learn what we need to do to reverse CO2 out, and get back to 1970's temperatures on Cuttyhunk! :) ... and did these past 15 months allow us to work from home in new ways - and into the future too - and will this lack of traveling by car to work in the future by people in all 200 countries, since they're working from home, factor significantly into global warming greenhouse gas reduction in a brand new way?
Thank you Sandy for the beautiful new back bathroom and for everything working well in Piney's house - like the gas stove, and all the electricity and the appliances and other house stuff! :) Thank you both! And see, talk to you soon!

Turns out the weather didn't rain or thunder - just a loud plane buzzed over this part of the island (after I sent the previous abolition email) ...
Kind of not too humid to dry clothes, and indeed there's a load getting cleaned in the wash machine now ... May top off the line drying with some dryer action in the early evening ...
David comes over soon .. Will look for swimming trunks

How are you doing? How's the weather by you two? Nice to bagpipe this morning ... Soon to focus my further learning ahead when I play again ... A meditation via a kind of easing concentration perchance :)
Love, Scott

David stopped by for about 30 minutes ... very nice to see him, and chat. Jim Lovell's memorial service is tomorrow at 12 noon in the Church, and with a remembrance celebration in the Cuttyhunk Fishing Club afterward. Glad David told me about this. As we talked, I mentioned living in a 'safe house,' that I might like to do further actual field work at Harbin Hot Springs, before possibly moving back east in 2022 (and in seeking a life partner in doing so), and then doing virtual Harbin field work, and even publishing my second Harbin ethnography from Google Street View, text in the sidebar. In talking about Harbin, Daivd reminded me that Ishvara / aka Bob Hartley had roots in Padanaram, and I mentioned DC too - and that I think he had been over to Cuttyhunk perhaps in the 1950s and knew Jim and Flora Lovell, and possibly others on Cuttyhunk too. Small world ... Heading to Jim Lovell's memorial tomorrow could even lead to further travel after this summer - and up to Harbin this winter for field work, before moving east possibly ... and I could then fly out west occasionally, and with students over the following years of field work, and further Harbin Hot Springs' projects -

The rain just began in earnest, and 15 minutes ago as it was beginning to sprinkle, I moved my significantly dry clothes off the line, to dry them completely down below ... Clean bed clothes tonight :) ... but now it has eased off again ...
Just after emailing the abolition missive earlier, and the plane buzzing over soon after, including to Grant Schenck, the vacuum cleaner also sounded from there ... quite some musical instruments in a wee ensemble! :)
Didn't find the swimming trunks on round 2 of search ... may pick up a pair when I head off to see Henry and Victoria, or even find a pair elsewhere on island ... but probably won't go skinny dipping :)

Methinks I'm safe here - on the 'underground railroad' - from the latent culture of violence of the international illegal sex industry, having left living in a 'safe house' in the SF Bay Area on Sunday 6/20/21 by car, on a freedom trail to the east coast ... eg From the perpetrators and offenders (eg in Canyon 94516) thereof, that might do anything to keep their businesses going ... abolish the ILLEGAL international sex industry (a form of slavery), in all 200 countries!

Ma, Sandy,Hmmm, brown swimming trunks and the 3-cornered hat (from the US revolutionary period) seem to have found appreciators, and walked ... since they appear not to be here (are they here?, by any chance do you know, -and because I'm blind:) ... May head to go rowing (pre-sailing, since I may not go in the water yet at Church's beach, without swim trunks ... :)< div dir="auto" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
Pretty day here from inside, and now that it's cooling, I may head for a walk soon. DT is coming over tomorrow afternoon around 2:30 and we could possibly walk out the inner road (which is a public access road I think) to the West End and find some warm water in the West End ponds to soak in :)
Just emailed Elinor Karlsson (and George Church, genetics' professor at Harvard Medical School and MIT) ... to inquire if Elinor might like to meet for a coffee before or after 7/16 and Sa 7/12 when I'm heading to see Henry and Victoria in NH ...
Dear Elinor,
Greetings from Cuttyhunk island, Massachusetts, south of New Bedford. I'm writing to follow up on my email from April to inquire whether you might like to meet for a coffee or similar sometime around the weekend of F 7/16 & Sa 7/17 when I'm planning to head off island to visit friends in New Hampshire, one from high school. As you know, am developing CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, and it would be great to meet as acquaintances and colleagues to chat about this and your Genetics' work.
I realize you study vertebrates genetically, but I think you'd have much knowledge genetically which could be applied to invertebrates such as Drosophila. I wonder too how the possible doubling of the lifespan of a single Drosophila fly to say 180 days - and virtually with A G C Ts (say in a realistic virtual earth for genetics, with machine learning) - could be applied to dogs, and also digitally.

Will see if she gets back to me. I heard her in a video presentation in January, and was impressed, and appreciate the potential here for a new colleague. She's a Director at the Broad Institute of Genetics and which is part of Harvard and MIT ... and which could be relevant too for building out a realistic virtual earth for genetics. Good to be in communication too with George Church I think (who seems to be extraordinary in a variety of ways regarding what he knows and how he applies it:).
Am exploring the idea of installing a Google Nest Yale Lock (combination and internet-connected) on the back door, brainstorming-wise, where we 3 would each have the password - https://store.google.com/us/config/nest_x_yale_lock - but it could involve other parts, and am not sure whether it would be worth it at this stage. But if there's illegal entering, and activity in the off season, and in the house, I think it might lower our risks (and even regarding federal authorities possibly :) ... will explore further with time a bit. What do you think?
How were your days, and what are you up to for the rest of the week. Am enjoying the beautiful island of Cuttyhunk in a myriad of ways ... heading out for a row, and a wade perhaps up to my knees near Church's beach, and then back for a shower, and Scottish small piping for the 2nd time today :)
Sending love, Scott
Explored the abolition idea (abolition of slavery further, in a sense) yesterday in my blog - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Cuttyhunk?m=0 - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/06/piping-plover-san-francisco-5-yrs-ago.html?m=0 - and possibly even regarding our place, if it might be illegally entered for illegal commerce of buying and selling people, atrocity-wise even! :( ... Hoping psychiatry at WUaS can come to play a real role in protecting people from becoming victims in such regards too even, and post the non-SARS Cov2 non-epidemic of the past many months ... which may have been helpful for getting data useful for reversing global warming even ... and to 1970's temperatures on Cuttyhunk even! :)
Looking forward to seeing you at the end of the month, - and if not before, Sandy, around the 7/16/7/17 weekend .... I might even explore heading up to Machias Maine, where we're supposed to have some ancestors :)

Greetings from Cuttyhunk island, Massachusetts, south of New Bedford. I'm writing to follow up on my email from April to inquire whether you might like to meet for a coffee or similar sometime around the weekend of F 7/16 & Sa 7/17 when I'm planning to head off island to visit friends in New Hampshire, one from high school. As you know, am developing CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, and it would be great to meet as acquaintances and colleagues to chat about this and your Genetics' work.
I realize you study vertebrates genetically, but I think you'd have much knowledge genetically which could be applied to invertebrates such as Drosophila. I wonder too how the possible doubling of the lifespan of a single Drosophila fly to say 180 days - and virtually with A G C Ts (say in a realistic virtual earth for genetics, with machine learning) - could be applied to dogs, and also digitally.

Dear Elinor,
I just filled out this survey, and also have some questions about a Drosophila genetics' project I'm interested in. I'm interested in this particular project with regards to developing CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School and also regarding an Actual-Virtual realistic virtual earth for genetics (see below) - and for longevity, and aging reversal, questions especially. I think your knowledge could help shape this further in great and fascinating ways.
Below are the questions I asked in your January talk, as well as my responses to the survey questions I just finished.
Am exploring the idea of heading back to Cuttyhunk island, Massachusetts (where my family has a home), from the SF Bay Area, from around June 28th until August 4th or 5th or so, and wonder if you might like to meet for a cup of coffee sometime? I'd like to see the Worcester Art Museum as well as the Ecotarium (if they will be open during the coronavirus pandemic), and wonder if one of these places could even be good to meet at?
Thank you for your interesting Broad Institute talk in January - https://youtu.be/YKjYFydrje0.
Sincerely, Scott
PS This is the idea in the big picture -

How do breeds (the labs) & ‘outbreeds’ (or what you called the cats)) - and humans’ genomes - retain fertility but donkeys mules and donkeys don’t even in terms of the genetic characterizations, Elinor, that you’re making for Zoonomia? Thank you. Scott (sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org)

Might it be possible for the natural world to shape a gene drive that could be inserted into our genomes via pandemic viral infections?
Tom Ulrich 02:43 PM
Great question! In a sense, the natural world already did that, millions of years ago. Researchers think that somewhere between 5 and 8% of our genome came from ancient viruses.
Anonymous Attendee 02:44 PM
Will this seminar be available online? I find it very inspiring and would love to revisit some of the concepts.

Elinor, (and George),
Greetings again, and I hope this finds you both very well.
As a follow up (having filled out the Broad Institute's survey form today with questions per your edifying January Broad talk), and regarding a Drosophila fly longevity conversation:
In what ways could we double the lifespans of actual individual Drosophila flies in the jar -
CRISPR for reversion! Exciting times 😇 #Drosophila pic.twitter.com/8mVYNpQ7an

Focus on lifespan #Longevity with #AgingReversal? ~ #Drosophila ~ https://t.co/kQi6I68nas #WUaSLongevity #WUaSagingReversal in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForCRISPR (think #GoogleStreetView with #TimeSlider with #AI at cell & molecular levels with #DigitalSpecies @WorldUnivAndSch) https://t.co/YtgrYfF9Uc
— WorldUnivandSch (@WorldUnivAndSch) March 31, 2021
(https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1377070127976312838?s=19) ?
Could we double their lifespans via a spray or food into this jar (of a genetic drug researchers might develop) even?
In what ways could we map an individual fly's genome at a certain point in time - to A G C Ts ? And with machine learning, in what ways could we map this genome out in new AGCTs as an extended lifespan, say to 180 days (if 40-50 days or 90 days is the outer limit of a Drosophila fly's life span) - so virtually and digitally? (These Actual-Virtual developments as conversation, I'm particularly interested in).
And if gene function declines as an organism ages - per Harvard MIT Professor of Genetics' George Church - https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk - what does this look like in A G C & Ts at different time points?
Further, if one could develop a film-to-3D App for 'everything,' and here for Drosophila flies, in what ways could one transpose these flies in this jar into 3D Drosophila flies - think Google Poly, a library of virtual objects (which is closing soon) - and in a realistic virtual earth for species https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/1367587550274015232?s=19 (and at the cellular and molecular levels too)?
Is it possible to tag Drosophila flies individually, like in this jar, and sequence their genomes at different time points?
Thank you,
Scott

In what ways WOULD it be possible to build a realistic virtual earth for species as new genetic tools that would allow us to make hybrid organisms like this genetically engineered Axolotl-Bird hybrid -

black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta): SF Bay Area ~ Cuttyhunk
Susan, Ma, all,
Greetings from north central Pennsylvania en route from the SF Bay Area to Cuttyhunk Island Massachusetts, via Pennsylvania, aka Penn's Woods ... a religious experiment long ago, by Friends :)
And here now I find myself coming into State College, Pennsylvania, wondering where we might have gone Scottish Country Dancing here in the 1970s. And who was that tall woman at the Sheetz gas station I saw twice, once inside then outside - someone named Sarah Jean (Thompson)??? - also from the late 1970s, now today in a recreational bikers' gang, with black T-shirt (with a group of bikers, men and women), and who smiled broadly as I drove out, but who was wearing long white dresses with a blue green plaid at some Scottish dances, in the very late '70s, if I recall correctly. And there was a man next to her, a biker too, a boyfriend husband ??, - also a Scottish Country Dancer ??? (from long ago, handle bar mustache and shaven head)?
Now, coming into Pennsylvania State University's main campus, in State College, via side roads, I then found myself on Scotia Road, near Meeks' Road (where Donald Meeks is a brilliant Cambridge trained professor at the Univ of Edinburgh, in the School of Scottish and Celtic Studies, from the Isle of Tiree, and a native Scots' Gaelic speaker ... ) ... when I studied there in 2003-2004 ...
Now does one Katie (nee) Gould live in these parts still? Scottish Country Dancer of State College at the time ... (And thanks for reminding me, Sue, when we met at Lincoln's diner, that we met at the Ligonier Highland Games in the mid 1970s, - & that I said to you, with my curly hair, before a GHB practice chanter competition, that we needed to know 2 tunes, rather than one, since you were learning to play the Great Highland Bagpipes' chanter around this time as well :)
Greetings from Circleville Public Park :)
So nice to see you in Pittsburgh

As Aye, :)
Scott

Hi Kate, (Janie, Alden, Marianne, Alex, Heather, Jillian, All),
Thanks so much, Kate, for the lovely dinner, and for your kind hospitality just now in Lakeville, Connecticut. Nice to visit your beautiful home here as well. Looking forward to seeing you on Cuttyhunk if it works out sometime in July. (Hoping your move with Christian, if you decide to go ahead with it, to the SF Bay Area goes well ahead - and what a big change too!) Nice to learn more about a favorite first cousin once removed, your husband of 28 years, John Briscoe, esp! Thanks for sharing.
See you in the morning, and thank you so much again, Kate!
(Looking forward to staying in touch about MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch and journalism, for example - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Journalism (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects)
(Ma, thanks for your call too, which I got on my laptop. While I appear not to have telephone access here, I do have laptop computer access, thanks to Kate and Christian's wifi signal; I am departing around 9am, and hope to make ferry reservations on a landline).

(Kate Briscoe is a bit nervous or anxious these days she says, and said she's isolated too - and is thinking of moving out to the Berkeley area with Christian it sounds like fairly soon).
Hoping to be on Cuttyhunk in the evening of tomorrow if all works out ferry schedule-wise.

Hi Ma, Sandy, John, Joan, Ed, Alden,
Greetings from western Pennsylvania! Am at my mother's - it's so very nice to visit, and see old Pgh friends too - and looking forward to seeing you all very much as well. Am seeking to leave the Pgh area around 8am and visit my cousin in NW Connecticut ... and hope to be on Cuttyhunk on Monday evening..
Some photos that popped up recently in Google Pics from my trip :) - SF Bay Area ~ Pghhttps://photos.app.goo.gl/K88XfyJFw21dp9Gh6
Warm greetings from on the road, Scott
PSYou might enjoy the email I sent to my friend from high school - with whom I did Scottish Country Dancing - below ...
Susan,
So so nice to visit with you, non-virtually - and eat brunch together in Lincoln's Diner I'm Millvale, Pittsburgh just now.
Here are theamazing free iNaturalist Apps -
Seek by iNaturalisthttps://www.inaturalist.org/pages/seek_app
iNaturalisthttps://www.inaturalist.org
Maybe we can check them out together while hiking another time!
iNaturalist let's you ask questions of a social network about natural history and species and geology, I think, of what it and you don't know.
Seek iNaturalist allows you to identify species of trees for ex on the fly with your camera :)
Susan, further, re Scots' identity ... AndCeltic-knot identity-wise too ... Lots of Scots-Irish background in Millvale. What do you think, - about Welsh- and Breton-Scots identity too in the greater Pgh area, in the Millvale area too? Methinks of the 6 Celtic languages, I haven't heard of any Cornish or Manx language ancestors of mine, but do think I may have ancestors who spoke the first 4/6 languages potentially, or at least 3 out of 6 languages, -and English ancestors too! You - as your family tree fans out?

My wikitree here -Gordon Kenneth (Scott GK MacLeod) "Scott or Scotty" MacLeod III (1960 - )https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/MacLeod-2524 - but re below and my Chadbourne ancestors, can't yet seem to go on any platform I know, (Wikitree and Ancestry) from Humphrey Chadbourne who married Sarah Bolles and back to Edward 1 and his French forebears :) Hmmm :)
Let's explore in online libraries and in conversation further :) Warm regards, Scott

Chadbourne line of ancestors are supposed to go back to Edward the 1st who may have been Welsh (so called Hammer of the Scots', and English Justinian, re Magna Carta too) ...
