Wondering if Ken Burns is familiar with Quaker thinking re peace activism ... Here's Ken Burns giving the commencement speech at Stanford recently:

Holy moly, Heartsong ... and we missed celebrating your birthday too!

Will have to explore this (and our own versions of " [ quantum physics, anti-particles , blah,  blah...] " in a realistic virtual earth at cellular, atomic, and subatomic levels ... ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy-wise ...
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy ... but not yet a realistic virtual Harbin for exploring and studying the brain chemistry of {loving} bliss while soaking and hanging out - either at home in our bathtubs or in the pool area, where the latter is greater ? :) Jaima, jaima, Scott

Not sure what it means but this pic just popped up in Twitter and I posted this picture of MIT Chemistry grad student Grace Russell ...

Did you hear that it's the anniversary of Jimi Hendrix's od passing (with news' report just below Grace)

Glad a Quaker from SF Friends' Meeting re hatred replied something like "Love always wins" or "by love alone is healed" in this "Vietnam Series on PBS" email thread,  in which I also posted this ...

[SF Quakers] Vietnam Series on PBS

Hi R, D and Friends,

Thanks, and that sounds like a great idea. (Just blogged a bit about this Vietnam series, including adding a 1/2 hour "PBS Previews: The Vietnam War" - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/09/java-pangolins-did-vietnam-win-against.html - with some queries).

I don't think Ken Burns grew up as a Quaker, but there's a lot of Quakerly-thinking in his film-making here. Quite a document of not only this war, but the American context in which it was protested.

Friendly greetings,
Scott
