Greetings from Western Pennsylvania near where three rivers come together - Ohio, Allegheny, Monongahela 

Dear Peter Norvig, Alana Karen (a Google Director whom I heard present in a Stanford Law CodeX presentation, and with whom I communicated afterward in an email with Roland Vogl), Google "Global Affairs' ' counsel and senior lawyer, Kent Walker (please forward), Ma (Janie), and I've removed my brother Sandy MacLeod from this emailing (per his request, and having sought US federal protection for myself, my mother, Janie MacLeod, and my brother Sandy in Portland Maine - and Ma, please forward this to Sandy, and abolitionally), but not Byron Hann MD, Ed Smyth MD in Berkeley, Sid/Pin Mazumdar HHS (& again regarding calling for US federal protection for myself, my mother and my brother), Tym Lenderking (FBI?), All, ...



Peter (Norvig), All, 

Again regarding the "Google Play services" message splayed across the middle of my smartphone and re my 11/1/23 email - "with a "Google Play services' bug? messages still spread across the middle of my smartphone screen and since August on Cuttyhunk ... any suggestions, please, Peter (Norvig), or ?) - again as I emailed to many of you on Nov 11, 2023 - 

I'm wondering whether this could even somehow tragically refer to a "Play or Pay" (e.g. with my life even, and tragically?) idea ... an idea I've come across before in studying modernity, and 'internetity' (eg the Information Technology Revolution and Age) etc. 

How please can I request Google Android Pixel 6a phone support and Google to remove this message as soon as possible? Or how could I even 'hack' it off for example?

Thanks, ABOLITIONALLY, staying alive as I'm in asylum on the eastern seaboard of the USA, having whistleblowing and called the police twice from both Canyon 94516 in 2020, and in Pittsburgh PA 15221 in spring 2023 about related questions of abolishing the wrongful buying and selling of people in the illegal sex, drugs and violence industries and their latent networks of violence, in all ~200 countries and in their main languages, Happy New Year,

"Welcome to New England, Ma, and I hope your travels have gone well! Nice to see you and please be careful - and glad I've sought US federal protection for you, Sandy (whereas Sandy's possible attempts to steal the Cuttyhunk house from me, and possibly you too, this summer, were brainstorming-wise, also possibly mediated by authoritarian or-ented trolls' communications over communication protocols, like the possible "Do" message sent from your phone number this morning to my email address), and myself ...

Good morning! How are you? Just shared this with you: 

Hi Pin/Sid! Greetings from Pittsburgh! How are you? (I don't think I'm going to go to the Pittsburgh Quaker Meeting this morning after all, and possibly not until the "Fuck Maga" graffiti is removed by the US Postal Service from the green USPS box near the Pittsburgh Friends' Meeting ... and in seeking US federal protection for myself, my mother and my brother Sandy). It would be great to see you sometime. Any chance you might be able to come visit in Pittsburgh (albeit sleeping on a 3 fold mattress in my living room, as I sleep on some inflatable and other camping pads). In asylum on the eastern seaboard, and newly with a lease for a year in Pgh, am glad to have received a text message from Allegheny county yesterday afternoon asking if I was still on Medicaid - Y or N? - re UPMC health care coverage I think, and I text back Y ... so I may be getting univ pitt med ctr health care coverage further beginning this week, I think. Warm regards, Scotty (https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/11/scabiosa-mn-national-flower-of-mongolia.html

In calling for US federal protection for my mother, my brother, Sandy, and myself, please keep my mother safe in her trip to Portland Maine this week, and in that my brother Sandy may have tried to steal the MacLeod Cuttyhunk from me and potentially from her, possibly brainstorming-wise by planning her demise, tragically, - and potentially regarding entanglements with organized crime internationally, and my father's my subdural hematoma on univ pitt managed at the time semester at sea in the country of Belize on 12/30/2004 tragically too. All double Oedipus complex material? 

And again to my mother and you: 
Glad we live in an Abolition society since 1865 and Civil Rights law of the 1960s, and am seeking with World Univ & Sch to grow this long standing abolition movement to protect many - and in raising questions about the US federal government's USPS and for example "Fuck Maga" graffiti near the Pgh Quaker Meeting and sadly and tragically some Quajers' roles in the illegal sex drug and violence etc industries. Glad to be still alive in asylum on the eastern seaboard and in Pittsburgh! Love, ❤️, see you soon today, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/11/red-carnation-mc-national-flower-of.html)

Dear Ma (Janie), Peter (Norvig), Henry, Ed Smyth MD in Berkeley, Sid Mazumdar HHS (& regarding calling for US federal protection for myself, my mother and my brother), (David Thurston in DC area not in email thread as recipient), All, 

Great to hear from you, and greetings .. How are you?

Greetings! Was just exploring the Sewickley, Pennsylvania, area just west of Pgh, and particularly its Quaker Valley sites, which was its name, and found the following Quaker names: Quaker Valley Middle School, Quaker Valley High School, a Quaker Valley police pickup truck parked in the Quaker Valley high school parking lot, very visibly, "Camp Meeting road,' and similar. I talked with a man on the side of the road whom I had asked regarding the Quaker history in the area, and he said his wife was working on a film on African Americans in the Sewickley area, and I mentioned a #RealisticVirtualEarthForHistory to which they could potentially add this film in some years if interested, and regarding licensing questions too. I also mentioned Brown University library archives as a source for AI data for a realistic virtual earth for history (eg of Quakers from 1683 forward, and of the 1960s and 1970s a time I'm interested in), for example, as well as local historical societies, of which he mentioned there is one in Sewickley. As I also drove into the back woods of Sewickley, I saw the name Leet a couple of times (again) and thought of a  ..... .... .. in the SF Bay Area, affiliated with UCSF, who may be living a wigged out existence possibly too. He also mentioned  that people had built summer homes in Sewickley during the steel mills' time in Pgh to get away from the air pollution. He reminded me of David Thurston a lot. 

And I also just called David Thurston in the DC area, and Ed Smyth MD in the Berkeley area, while I was hiking on a new trail I found, called Devil's Hollow trail in the Sewickley area, and mentioned some of the above. 


Having called for US federal protection recently for myself, my mother around here, and my brother in Maine, I just had an interesting experience while hiking: the trail markers on this Allegheny Land Trust parcel of great woods disappeared, about .5 miles into the hike, and fortunately, I had downloaded the topo maps for this hike while using AllTrails'  and the leaves had fallen for winter ... and I was able to orienteer in a sense easily another 1/4 to 1/3 of a mile to refind the trail. Had some property owner's removed them, I asked, wondering, in the phone messages I left with David Thurston and Ed Smyth (who gave me 'All Trails' App some years ago as a birthday present)? I walked on and I soon spotted what looked like some hunters in the forest, in camouflage, with weapons even, but it was a little difficult to tell from the distance for sure ... and at that time my Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency 24 hour reminder to mine it came up ... and newly with sound effects after one mines it for 3-4 Pi coins daily ... of what appears to be a first person shooter game (a surprisingly to me successfully video game format) ... so with rapid fire gunshots going off on my smartphone, and the possible hunters down below, I wondered what to do ... Should I call down to the hunters? Not sure, and still using topo maps for a very poorly marked trail now ... I walked on (and Peter (Norvig), all, how please to turn off these sound effects and gaming scenarios from the Pi Network? ... will look closer too to see if there's an option to turn it off) ... thinking in terms of somehow internet ecology sociocultural (re the karma word) dynamics ... and found, too, some large largely worded No Trespassing signs to my left as I followed the trail down to the parking area. And there the hunters appeared to be: as I walked up the 3 vehicles there, I said to the one on the passenger side ... don't want to surprise you ... and taking off his camouflage jacket and wearing a 12 inch knife by his side, and now a black shirt, he looked like he was about 20, like he and his compatriot had just put their weapons (crossbows, or rifles?) in the back of a sealed black pickup, and were heading on ... and did he say "Oh, ok" or similar, touching his nose, and they pulled out ... but I was able to write down their license plate fortunately I think - ZPT 8516. Were they licensed to carry weapons, (there was a hunters be careful sign posted, and possibly re Allegheny land trust lands, law wise too) ... and were they there also somehow symbolically ... and re even GPS possibly? In asylum on the eastern seaboard, having just signed a year long lease for Pgh, and in a wigged out time, which I've written some about ... read on:

Glad to get Henry's second email response - (and read - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/11/maltese-centaury-mt-national-flower-of.html ... )

"So where will you be in Western PA? I think I remember your mother (regards to her by the way) is in Oakmont. Near there, then? 

We are all fine. Our big preoccupation right now is Louis, who is in Rajasthan, India, working for a nonprofit that teaches disabled people so they can get jobs. He is supposed to find people to hire them. He is well suited to that but there is a big culture gap. And he is disorganized so we are afraid he will
lose his bank card. But I tell myself it will be ok and he is learning a lot. Guess I need to relax.

Alice is about to finish college, Victoria and I are learning the Lindy Hop (surprisingly difficult) and I am studying Arabic. It is hard but I think I can learn if I stick to it. I imagine how cool it would be to take the train from Rome to Sicily and then a ferry to Morocco. Don’t hold your breath for that one.

Best of luck with the new location.

Henry "

Also texted my mother the other day as I was moving in ... 

"Hi Ma! I signed the lease (ON PAPER I chose to get out of DotLoop), got the keys ... and as I sat meditating this morning, I noticed above the heater, and to the left of the front door, a fuse box, and recalled in the flurry in the office of signing the lease, paying the cashiers check for 10,905.00, and getting the keys, including to a laundry in the Bryant Lofts' Apartments' building with office w blocks away ... and getting to watching the 3 presentations in Stanford Law CodeX about 15 minutes late, I turned on the fuses and the refrigerator turned on I heard ... Also it appears I had hot water yesterday evening too ... (and also intend to sign the water/sewage lease, which I didn't sign yesterday in the hurry to get to Stanford Law CodeX) ... but now need a shower curtain, which I have a new one in storage ... Everything seems to be working, got a good night's sleep ... good to sit in meditation too ...  Love, abolitionally, see you soon:), Scott

My reply to Henry just now (and what is a writer? ... someone skillful in putting language on a page? different forms of thinking ..)

Dear Henry, 

Thanks for your email response again. 

Just added World University and School's new address in Pittsburgh to the signature below, Henry & all. Yes, - roughly equidistant it seems to me between where she lives in Verona, and the Ohio, Allegheny and Monongahela rivers' confluence. "Der Apfel faellt nicht weit von Baum" (I remember learning either in Germany or from the Alexanders).

Glad you're all fine! What if Louis were to lose his smartphone there too? Is he in the amazing Indian 'capital city' of Rajasthan,  Jaipur? Might Louis be able to find 'university people' for World Univ & Sch in the Hindi, and Marwari, Mewari, Dhundhari, Mewati, Harauti languages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages - and regarding the planned physical-digital WUaS Educational Services' Stores in all 22 of Indian states and official languages? Does Louis have reliable broadband wi-fi to his smartphone, and / or how do you stay in communication? (I recall visiting the Mazumdars in their home in Kolkata, NE India, in 2013-2014, and them, and me once, doing 'FaceTime' video calls with Pin, for example in the US). Are you meditating at all, and re the relaxation response, but also the benefits of an inner releasing action = http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2008/09/arc-steps-to-elicit-relaxation-response.html - and kind of an inner attuning or attunement neurophysiologically too? :)
 
Congratulations to Alice (and you two too)! Your email is inspiring in a number of ways to me, Henry: maybe it would be fun to learn a new form of dance and to meet a life partner, who could also be a MD to be, for example, and with some Scottish background too .. And to improve my German, with a 22-25 yo German who might be studying at a University in Pittsburgh - ('The best way to learn a language is on a pillow' ??, rather than Scottish Gaelic or French), and whom I might meet possibly through Peter Koehler, a retired Pitt physics' professor, and also former neighbor of my parents' on Juniata, 2 houses away, and now also at Longwood - possibly online with someone in Germany, and not re the pillow either. Are you studying Italian concurrently with Arabic - both online? I continue to meditate first upon rising, salutarily, and as a form of Yoga sitting and breath exploration too :) ... 

4. Breathing ~ Mmmmm feels so good {easing & visionary Pranayama-wise} ~ explore

http://www.scottmacleod.com/yoganotations.html (... the extent of my Yoga teaching, philosophy-wise, too, currently :)

Am enjoying my new place ... but wondering if it's the worst of luck to not move into a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Road, Canyon, CA 94516 for a song, this autumn ... and thanks to Ed Smyth MD and John Sargent MDs' thinking too ... but it seems like I and WUaS could potentially move the Physical-Digital WUaS Academic Medical Center with warm water cure with WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute there on December 1, 2024 ... and possibly more safely than now ... Looked up Rainbow Gathering recently and found the link in the PS interestingly ... My Physical Digital ethnographic hot springs' field sites are all in California ... Harbin Hot S[rings, and Travertine Hot Springs & Buckeye Hot Springs, both east of the Sierra mountains ... Maybe a Toyota Proace Camping Van Autonomous Vehicle with a shower (https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/10/nosegay-national-flower-of-laos.html ... with shower floor plan ... and re the "Karmann Mobil Duncan'  does or could the name 'Duncan' refer to a kid (whom I taught in 1st Day School) in the SF Quaker Meeting who may have been raped, tragically, by steve leeds and alice sowaal and company for the illegal sex and violence industries' profits and regarding their latent networks of violence too? ... in the mid 2010s ... among a whole unfolding tragic international sex ring partly out the SF Quaker Meeting and Pacific Yearly Meeting ... who knows? ) will come along by the end of the year, and I can drive out to California a couple of times in 2024, for field work especially for my 2nd Harbin Hot Springs' physical-digital ethnographic book ... Your email also made me wonder: What is luck philosophically and from different identity-wisdom-cultures-languages' perspectives? 

luck - "success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one's own actions"

Constitutive luck is luck in who one is, or in the traits and dispositions that one has




... and re questions of 'Agency' especially .. about which I explored with brilliant and thinking George Alexander MD some too ..

"an agent is a being with the capacity to act, and 'agency' denotes the exercise or manifestation of this capacity"

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/agency/#:~:text=In%20very%20general%20terms%2C%20an,or%20manifestation%20of%20this%20capacity.


Also agency is 'intentional action; - (am thinking free will and choosing to act too)


Did I and WUaS just lose an amazing opportunity to move into a very beautiful newly 'cleaned up' Canyon 94516 ... and as I and WUaS grow an abolition movement, and with planning, and to protect potentially 7.9 billion people on the planet?

Best regards, abolition-ally, thanks, Scott

I also reached out to Stanford Law CodeX's Roland Vogl and Alana Karen,  presenter at the Thursday Stanford Law CodeX, and a Google Director, and regarding WUaS further collaborations with Google (since this is a Google email address, for example, and 3 of WUaS's Google email addresses have become inaccessible (Meeting@ worlduniversityandsch ... Info @ worlduniversitya.., and LIvestream @ worldu ...org ), - and WUaS would like them back if possible please ... and as WUaS continues to call for abolishing the wrongful buying and selling of people in the illegal sex drugs and violence industries ... with a "Google Play services' bug? messages still spread across the middle of my smartphone screen and since August on Cuttyhunk ... any suggestions, please, Peter (Norvig), or ?) -

Dear Alana and Roland, 

Thanks so much for your Stanford Law CodeX presentation yesterday! Here's the question I asked in the text chat: 
 
Great Alana, Have you thought about teaching a college course on "The Adventures of Women in Tech", and e.g. at Google-WUaS CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Women%27s_and_Gender_Studies (from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects)
- and perhaps for women seeking careers in Tech (planned in 200 countries and in their main languages - and with parallel World Univ & Sch Law Schools in 200 countries and in their main languages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Law_School
- and potentially partially as Large Language Models? Thanks, Scott (sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org)

I've added your book to the https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Women%27s_and_Gender_Studies ' wiki school as a resource. 

I wonder if I might ask you Alana please how MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, of which I'm the founder, and planned in 200 countries as major online universities, offering free-to-students' online Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD, IB high school or similar, AA / AS and Master's degrees in these countries ~200 languages, and wiki schools, on the other hand in all 7168 known living languages, and partly as large language models might collaborate further with Google, and possibly Google Pittsburgh PA, since WUaS has been in Google since around 2015.

Thanks, best regards, looking forward to learning further, 
Scott

Then a woman and her daughter just came out of the woods, and her daughter who goes to Sewickley academy her mother said, had a young person's BOW AND some ARROWS and in speaking with her for a minute or two I learned that it might be legal to have a bow and arrow with a permit ... but my impression was that her daughter didn't have this. These post Quaker developments in the area aren't my "subculture" or culture ... https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html ... http://www.scottmacleod.com/yoganotations.html ...

Thoughts, questions, ideas, suggestions?

Friendly Quaker greetings, staying alive, in asylum on the eastern seaboard, with WUaS calling for abolishing the illegal sex, drugs and violence industries, best wishes, thanks, Yogically, Scott

Dear Ma, Ed, Sid, John, All, 

Thanks to my Shady Side Academy high school friend and writer Henry Cutter for his reply to this yesterday - 

"Hi Scott

Great news that you will be in Western Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh and the area around it can be so beautiful. And great that you will have a lease and be near your mother.

Take care.

Henry "


Hi Henry,

Thanks so much for your email response.

World Univ & Sch has a new physical mailing address now, in addition to PO Box 442 Canyon CA 94516 - and glad to be in my new PA home with a lease.

Missing moving forward into a newly safe open beautiful 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon CA 94516 which friend Ed Smyth MD sight to precipitate beginning  in March 2022 for a song - and incredibly beautiful California ... but maybe next year and with a new life partner even ... and re safety questions too. 

And I agree: good to be in the same area as my wonderful mother (and see messaging below) for the next year and much to explore in beautiful western Pennsylvania! 

How are you? How are your family? 

ThAnks, Abolitionally, best wishes, Friendly regards, Scott 





PS
Good morning, Ma! I had the pleasure of sleeping in my new home without electricity in the dark (although I signed up online with Duquesne Light just before 5 pm while in the middle of the 3 presentations of hour long Stanford Law CodeX, one newly by a Google Director). Thank you for your support in this getting a place with a lease in Pittsburgh  PA process ! ❤️, Love, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Law
