Season Greeting’s ❤️, friends!


I hope this finds you well and in planning ahead for a great 2022, in this time of Solstice, Christmas and New Year - and related celebrations, gatherings and festivities! How are you? How was your 2021? 


As we seem to be emerging from the coronavirus pandemic non-genetic non-epidemic self-quarantine of the past 20 months, I see as good tidings that we may be able to abolish contemporary forms of slavery even, and also as good tidings that we may have problem solved with the 5 “Hypothetical News” items here at bottom, from 1/1/20 - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/04/himalyan-monal-how-are-harbin-hot.html. Heading to an abolition rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for Xmas, so happy travels too in this time of gathering with your families! Possible new solutions and approaches to abolition of the illegal sex industry, (and illegal drug industries + too), and their latent networks of violence, both regarding the profit motive, and internationally? Appreciating that the Anti-Slavery Act of Britain became law in 1833, and the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862 in the US, and that they freed millions of people. Appreciating too that even after the Civil Rights’ movement of the 1960s, and very recently after the coronavirus pandemic genetic engineering revolution advances, with vaccines, and electronic medical records (and which may not just have been about genetics or similar), of the past ~20 months, that there's abolition movement still work to be done, to free people, and in all ~200 countries! And how this develops at CC-4 https://ocw.mit.edu -centric wiki World University and School, in planning to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet, each a Wikidata Pin # and even for UBI Experiments to end poverty, by distributing a single cryptocurrency such as free Stanford Mine Pi (https://minepi.com/sgkmac), and protecting people with artificial intelligence and machine learning, is still unfolding. Good tidings! And while I don't know if a personal robot for each of all 7.9 billion people on the planet in some years can help, I am thinking this might be part of a solution! Happy New Year in 2022! 


A little news: I published my 5th book on January 1, 2021 - "Light, Float, Sit, Watsu ~ Virtually" - in the new Academic Press at World Univ & Sch - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - (planned in 7,139 known living languages with machine translation, and which is an authorized reseller of 3 Lego Robotics’ kits in the USA). And WUaS will potentially grow this @WUaSPress in GDocs with Google Translate in the New Year, and even creatively from Google Street View, with time slider, text-in-the-sidebar, with time. My Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital Harbin Hot Springs' Ethnographic project ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~ continues as well, and am hoping to get back to my actual field site in 2022, after major California fires, and the coronavirus pandemic of recent years.


More news, and good tidings too, in my blog, with a daily blog post again this 2021 year - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com. Search on the label that interests you! 


I’m glad to write that the WUaS Corporation, the second WUaS wing, recently received and paid its first tax bill from the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB), for 2018, 2019, and 2020 - momentously. WUaS is now beginning to work more closely with the state of California, in a sense (and even hopefully its 239,000 employees, many in its University systems!), and the WUaS Corporation is also a for-profit general stock company in California. 


The first WUaS wing:  World Univ & Sch's growth continues very gradually but WUaS is matriculating another Bachelor’s degree student, from Cameroon, Africa, presently, and with him studying a new ‘CS First’ with Google course. World Univ & Sch is excited that it’s this “CS First with Google” course that seems to have led him to decide to matriculate (and eventually probably through WUaS Google Workspace for Education @ WUaS admin.google.com or similar)! 


From Mwende in Cameroon, Africa, abt matriculating @WorldUnivAndSch in CS for free ocw.mit.edu -centric 4 yr Bachelor's Degree: YES w this new CC4 licensed 'CS First' course https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home - using #ScratchProgramming language info@worlduniversityandschool.og ~

This is a related direction World Univ and Sch is heading in, with Lego ROBOTICS' kits:


“In what ways could we best import this PHYSICAL Lego Robot via a #FilmTo3D App from YouTube into DIGITAL Scratch program scenes, brick by brick too, & then begin to do #ActualVirtual robotics, w the Scratch programming blocks, & in Google Street View too http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/11/english-sundew-drosera-anglica-robotics.html?m=0 ?”

And, again, the WUaS Corporation is an authorized reseller of 3 Lego Robotics’ kits in the USA and online, and is seeking to become a distributor (middle-person) of Lego Robotics’ on-the-ground in all 200 countries and even in their counties, as part of the WUaS seeking to develop Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital, Educational Services’ Bookstores/Cafes, Computer Stores, Robotics’ stores, and Hospital Technologies’ Distribution, etc., in all ~200 nation states, and in their counties too.


World Univ & Sch is also glad to be developing in Google My Business, with its integration with the rest of Google, e.g. - 

https://local.google.com/place?id=13580134555851014887&use=posts&lpsid=CIHM0ogKEICAgIDGgZL8fQ And please send in the CC-4 OCW.mit.edu courses you'd LIKE to study in your first term, and your transcripts, for a free-to-students' 4-year Bachelor or PhD degree to meeting@worlduniversityandschool.org beginning in 2022 now! -


Further good tidings to you: 

Harvard and MIT Professor of Genetics’ George Church is suggesting aging reversal genetic drug vaccines and therapies are emerging: 


How soon could humans reverse the aging process with genetic engineering?

https://youtu.be/bnCEIPQFNnk (60 Minutes)


And do these recent @GeoChurch Tweets possibly indicate the accelerating of Aging Reversal Genetic Drug Therapies’ and Vaccines’ development, regarding genetics' and companies?


The following seem to be amazing examples of Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital, biology-machine learning developments, and re companies, scientists, law, countries, mapping, and centers for Genetic and Artificial Intelligence excellence, and for emerging Aging Reversal Genetic Drug Therapies, from Harvard and MIT Professor of Genetics' George Church -


Astellas and Dyno Therapeutics (regarding mapping, and possible correlation with Google Street View with time slider at the cellular and molecular levels) -

And, some further inquiries, and a blog post, in these regards:  

If 1st generation #AgingReversal drugs will get us to 25 'years old' when 150 yo, what will 2nd gen #AgeReversal vaccines do, re avoiding #SideEffects & #UnanticipatedConsequences?


Purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea): If 1st generation #AgingReversal drugs will get us to 25 'years old' when 150 yo, what will 2nd gen #AgeReversal vaccines do, re avoiding #SideEffects & #UnanticipatedConsequences? #WUaSAgingReversal #WUaSlongevity in #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics in 1 #RealisticVirtualEarth? * brass ring? What could this mean? * * Honestly pretty, Lovisa Herold - with some Greens' Swedish thoughts about flying (about shaming Swedes not to fly, interestingly) ... Published on my mother's birthday 2 years ago ... "Swedish identity in modernity, not yet 'internetity'" I would say

Seeking to record my 2nd Scottish Small Pipes’ album in 2022, this one of Piobaireachd classical  bagpiping music, and tentatively titled, “Honey Piobaireachd” - http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm.


Very glad to learn that my brother, Sandy, is coming home to Pittsburgh this Christmas, and Solstice, for what seems like the first time in about 10 or 15 years! And looking forward to reconnecting with my mother and my brother both together over this Xmas holiday! 


Seasons' greetings, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year to you!


Friendly regards, Scott
