Interesting, and thanks for

- https://nontheist-quakers.org.uk/2020/03/24/news-from-humanists-uk/ and

- https://humanism.org.uk/2020/03/20/message-from-the-chief-executive/

In addition to thinking about the the novel corona virus COVID-19 (SARS CoV2) pandemic), below, and continuing to meditate first thing in the morning (relaxation response-wise, which I think happens de facto in (NtF and Ntf too) Friendly Quaker silent Meeting), am amazed by how many greatest American universities (eg MIT, Harvard, Stanford - and possibly Haverford and Swarthmore) are closing on-the-ground, and opening in far-reaching ways online for ongoing networking, idea-sharing, connecting and being together, as well as teaching and learning. (And MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch seeks to both collaborate, as well as put a major online university on your computer screen in front of you, with major university libraries, museums (all), and even music schools, with online music-making opportunities). Zoom, Skype, Google Meet all seem to be platforms in which people are coming together socially, for friendship, and for idea-sharing.

Non-theist Friendly greetings, Scott

Trevor, Tim, Andrew, David Boulton, NFNs, Humanists, NtFs, and All,

Would you like to hold the Nontheist Friends' Meeting at the end of March that you've canceled instead in WUaS's Google for Education, so much in Google Meet?

- https://nontheist-quakers.org.uk/2020/03/24/news-from-humanists-uk/ and
- https://humanism.org.uk/2020/03/20/message-from-the-chief-executive/

World University and School recently offered in a sense a 250 place online choir hall to the Unitarian Universalist Church choir of Palo Alto to explore singing together, as real, real time internet-speed grows and develops. See, for example, the recent WUaS Minutes - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/03/snowshoe-hare-minutes-for-march-21.html. And this would be the idea for your Humanist or NFN Meetings as well. (And this would also involve inviting your engineers to help develop this from within World Univ & Sch's Google for Education / G Suite for Education).

Friendly regards,
Scott

Friends, NtFs, Atheist Quakers, Agnostic friends, and All,

If an online virtual choir, with UUs, emerges, I'd like to invite you all to sing and dance regarding - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/03/centaurea-jacea-brownray-knapweed.html ~ and in a Free 250 place choir hall in G Suite - now with movement (for wellbeing) thanks to WITNESS.

Hear, too -
