Sierra Nevada (snowy range): Quakers, Money, Work -- Reminder, Hoping WUaS's "Peace and Social Justice" and I.T.-centric "Law Schools at WUaS" planned in all ~200 countries' main languages can be both Stanford-excellent and serene, as well as very helpful to and caring toward people, How, furthermore, to generate many, many "good faith" university and high school institutions online seems uniquely possible in big, unfolding ways with WUaS, I'm glad to say, Would like too for WUaS to be very ethical, impeccable even (and also profitable - 11% per year and as we grow centuries ahead), and may seek to file as a Benefit Corporation too, as we file the for-profit papers


Hi Mari and Donald,

Had hoped to see you in WF Meeting online from Stanford yesterday, Mari, but was actually on the road there for a Stanford Law event re Friendly-informed WUaS.

Would be great, if WUaS gets funding, to hire the SF FM Meeting room space /kitchen (below WUaS's M/W mornings' hive meeting space at AFSC/SFFM) to welcome volunteers (with free soup at lunch), orient them to editing and developing wiki CC OCW-centric WUaS (in all countries' main languages), and even begin the all-languages' bookstore and Academic Press at WUaS (with homeless folks eventually doing order fulfillment and warehouse work).

See you in Meeting another time online.

Friendly cheers,
Scott

Hi M,

Happy December and Advent!

I got some first gifties for you the other day in SF, which I think you'll enjoy (but I'm not telling you what they are - or even where they are, even though that wouldn't really matter). You can be surprised on Christmas. :)

Social media can be very generative (except perhaps in the hands of "bad faith" actors, in my experience) ... hoping my "Peace and Social Justice" {http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Peace_and_Social_Justice_Studies} and Information Technology-centric "Law Schools at WUaS" planned in all ~200 countries' main languages can be both Stanford-excellent and (seemingly) serene, as well as very helpful to and caring toward people. In my experience I don't often do well working with "bad faith" actors ... and hope to learn from this, as well as navigate away from this - and perhaps help students at WUaS do the same in navigating away from "bad faith" actors as well as institutions. How to navigate away from such folks, and toward caring good folks in work and life is a question I'll focus on as well. How, furthermore, to generate many, many "good faith" university and high school institutions online seems uniquely possible in big, unfolding ways with WUaS, I'm glad to say.

I hope you have a great day, and thanks again for talking yesterday evening.

L, Scott

Continuing to take the high road (which includes both hippie-wise and Harbin-wise in this construing, but also in a Scottish / British Isles' ethical sense), and also in a Yogic sense (of seeking to be impeccable - re Iyengar Yoga's aspirations), as well as in a Quaker sense ... I'd like too for WUaS to be very ethical, impeccable even (and also profitable - 11% per year and as we grow centuries ahead), and may seek to file as a Benefit Corporation too, as we file the for-profit papers.
