This is a living document that will continue to evolve with the hardware. I think this is the clearest language for now, but I welcome any disagreement or inputs.

Hi Nadia, and Craig, and Reedies' many, All, 

Very nice to be in communication with you. Thanks so so much for the picture and note, Nadia - with your husband Elliott and in front of a pool, and as a teacher in the DC area! (Good to know too that emails are going through!:) Thanks too for your text messages, Craig! 

Have blogged about some of this cooperative thinking here, - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/03/bwindi-impenetrable-forest-uganda.html - and much more regarding augmented reality, and genetic engineering too! Along these genetic engineering lines, how viable will aging reversal genetic drug therapies become (and thanks in part to the coronavirus pandemic), I wonder? 

Here's Harvard Medical School / MIT Professor of Genetics' George Church in a minute long video - 
"How soon could humans reverse the aging process with genetic engineering?" 

(See, too, the longevity label in my blog, albeit 'aging reversal' is a better term for this - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/longevity - and when will some of us culture and language-bearing human primates begin to live longer than 122 years of age, re Jeanne Calment, who was the oldest documented living person I've heard of). 

Some updates on Alpha Farm, which has sold the Alpha Bits' cafe-bookstore in 2018 ... 

Founder of Alpha Farm turns 90
Society has changed since 1972, but Caroline Estes is still hopeful
Posted Mar 6, 2018

(And while the hippy word seems scarce sometimes when I look for it in writings about the 1960s and '70s - and early 1980s too - in my academic readings, and regarding also my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" 2016 book, this article has a bit of a hippy vibe - 

"Community at its finest: Alpha Farm provides a tight-knit cooperative outside Eugene"


Will we be able to revisit Reed in a #realisticvirtualearthforhistory - https://twitter.com/hashtag/realisticvirtualearthforhistory?src=hashtag_click - and interact with avatar bots from the early 1980s there in conversation even? :)

"Now how best to head to #VirtualOregon in #1970s re a kind of #OregonVision in a #RealisticVirtualEarth ? - but probably not in a #RealisticVirtualHarbin since this would be in #virtualCalifornia :) ... and in  great #realisticvirtualearthforhistory ...

Hi Ma,

Good to have heard from Craig Thom yesterday. He's an old housemate from Reed and a friend, and interesting, 

having become a doctor of osteopathy (DO) in recent years, 

having grown up in southern California, 

having written his Reed thesis on Flannery O'Conner's sometimes absurd or 'southern gothic' literature, 

having played classical piano well, - and while at Reed having had a great interest in Waldorf education and Anthroposophy 

... And he taught in Waldorf schools for around 2 decades 

... A west coast dweller, his father was a minister in southern CA whom I met, and who lived thru the '60s and 70s there, and Craig is also insightful as a teacher I think, and is oriented to helping people, almost pastorally I wanna write 

...about 5 Reed friends and housemates went into Waldorf education - something about it culturally attracted these Reedies, but I find Craig sympatico, And he knows well the culture I lived in at Reed (which was formative if unique) 

... Craig saso appreciates I think my friend S.T., her radiance or beauty, and our connection at the time even ... Hmmm ... I can learn from Craig today although we're not that much in communication (could I meet a life partner through him - or learning from his modeling re his wife Par?) 

... He initiated a texting conversation with me re a Reed College collapse of gym roofs (what might folks have been doing there?)  which I've included here ... http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/03/bwindi-impenetrable-forest-uganda.html?m=0 ... and may include more of our conversation ... Could he also be in touch too with people or organizations who supported his medical education (???uniformed services speculatively???) re me somehow and re Reed too (where I've whistle blown about ethics' issues in recent years), as I develop WUaS even? Could any of this have catalyzed his texting me somehow? C'est possible ...Desiderata again ...

WUaS News and Q&A begins in about 1.5 hours, Ma ... Am taking a bit of a leadership role in all of this and as a non-theist Friendly Quaker 'leading' - but from 'out in left field' (baseball metaphor) in quite a few ways, but where there's freedom and space out in left field as well :) ... but which is also kind of a singular role (am alone in this in some ways, I feel, yet Larry is present also and others) ... even as I seek to grow an organization, a university, many universities and schools, a team, many groups of teams ...

Good to have walked again (up to the UU Church) yesterday evening ... And perhaps Friends and UU thinking (Harbin, and Hippy Yoga too, NtF too) - but much my own thinking - are informing WUaS ... All kinda unique or singular ... Good too to have bagpiped again last night ... am seeking to begin practicing (bagpipes and piano!) earlier in the day however ...

What are you up to this week besides your new 'New Yorker' magazine class? Sounds like it could be a literature class too ')

Hope you have a good day too :)

Love, Scott
