Loud call for abolition!

Not sure how Robert Morgan our WUaS Corp Rep at the state of CA FRANCHISE TAX BOARD could help here, but perhaps WUaS moving back into Canyon again on August 1 could also contribute to protecting people innocents kids women when these 3 legal processes - state, federal and international - are not working.


Robert Morgan and the CA FTB? ... 


Dear Larry, Ed, Pin, Jane, and All,.

Good morning and I hope this finds you well. How are you?

Thank you for talking about some of these issues last night, Larry! Thank you, thank you thank you. Issues questions continuing: Glad too to be in communication with T.L. (special envoy to Yemen in the US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, and Gantt Galloway, I think, about this and regarding exploring moving forward again into a newly safe Canyon house. Meeting the family from Yemen on July 4th in the Berkeley Marina fireworks, and Regarding possibly growing Work World University and School and in Arabic and English and in Yemen opens up possibly growing into the 26-27 out of ~200 countries where Arabic is the official language. Could this further open up possibly collaboration with the US state department even? 

(And thanks Ed for saying or suggesting in 2 long phone calls, unusually, that the state of California wouldn't be seeking reimbursement for the Canyon place because it's doing well - and could this be in communication with the CA governor's office? Glad too you're still alive, per your text message on July 4, and your observation about this a while ago as well - potent language!).

T.L and I texted last night and he could be in a position to help facilitate the WUaS Corporation and Work World University and School moving back into Canyon, I think. Thanks to him for coming to visit in 2012, and for our heading to HarbinBook Harbin Hot Springs together even 4 years before publication, (and even with a soldier in fatigues coming into the AM PM gas station where we had stopped, curiously). I think T may be focused on Canyon questions otherwise too.  (T also helpfully asked me about how I am seeking a friend for beginning a family with). Moving back again into a newly safe Canyon would involve setting up a Work World University and School Academic Medical Center with Warm Water Cure and Physical-Digital experiments and WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute.

Still waiting to hear back from the district 7 California state senator's office in Orinda as the WUaS "My FTB Account" generation process proceeds. 

In my uncertainty I find the Desiderata helpful -
- and regarding where to live next, or even whether to seek asylum on the east coast of the country and on around August 1, and also the odd birds T.L mentioned last night in texting, and the 'trickery' word in the Desiderata. 

Ma, appreciating your observations about Wimbledon tennis match and your turning on the AC yesterday to 78F, in a hot humid Pittsburgh, and your other wisdom, as your son. Maybe it's time to add another Wisdom Wiki subject to Work World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - and it's also great that the WUAS migration journey to wikibase.cloud is COMPLETED - since 2015, a real milestone.

Robert Morgan as our WUAS CA FTB Rep for the WUaS Corporation legal ENTITY (and FTB lead too, I think, but not our WUAS Rep for our exempt California World University and School legal ENTITY) may have made the process of getting a second PIN sent on paper happen after I talked with the CA FTB's Angelica 2 days ago, - and for CA FTB security procedures (as their FTB databases coding develops) ... But am still facing uncertainty about where I am going to live on August 1, and maybe you Larry, Pin, Ma, Ed, and Robert Morgan and T.. can help with this further and for the WUaS Work World University and School Academic Medical Center with Warm Water Cure and Physical-Digital experiments and WUaS Longevity Genetics'Institute and WUaS Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records for all 7.9 billion people on planet each a Wikidata WIKIBASE Wikimedia PIN #.

Further thoughts or questions about this?

Sincerely, abolition-ally, Friendly regards, staying safe, Yogic-ally, Scott 

'Pin to give directions ...???' email thread from yesterday 7/6/23
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/07/poovamkurunnal-cyanthillium-cinereum.html - and more protective than in the unsafe house north of Berkeley.





Dear Larry, All, 

The 'is that legal?' (which can refer to a beautiful woman who might...), re 'is it legal?' distinction comes to mind, legally, philosophically too, and regarding federal government law and law of a particular state in the USA (and in other countries too) ...

And then I saw this newspaper article on international law (and 

(Pic - The Greens' foreign minister n Germany Annalena Baerbock walking off airplane in Bali Indonesia talking about Russia - and re international law being observed and respected (and Google Translate is working well))



REHEARSAL MEETING OF FOREIGN MINISTERS
What to do if Putin is about to take part?
Moscow is also at the table at the G-20 summit in Bali. Foreign Minister Baerbock therefore said right at the beginning: "We all have an interest in international law being observed and respected."
By Johannes Leithauser, Bali



So how could Work World University and School 's law schools in 200 countries help and in their main languages?



Law Schools at World University and School (planned in main languages in them)

?

Loud call for abolition!

Not sure how Robert Morgan our WUaS Corp Rep at the state of CA FRANCHISE TAX BOARD could help here, but perhaps WUaS moving back into Canyon again on August 1 could also contribute to protecting people innocents kids women when these 3 legal processes - state, federal and international - are not working.
