Grand Teton National Park: Friday - arrived in the San Francisco east bay and Canyon 94516 in the afternoon, driving from Pennsylvania, and went to the US federal post office in Canyon 94516, asking for MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch's mail and also mentioned to the new USPO postmistress there that I have been asylum on the eastern seaboard for a little more than the last 2 years ... * * * Proposed Reedie+ book group beginning in late December 2024 or early 2025? ...

Proposed Reedie+ book group beginning in late December 2024 or early 2025? ... Tomorrow Sat 12/14/24 in Canyon?


Byron & Cindy, Donna L., Robin (Phillips, US Federal lawyer in RTAP now), Bay Area Reedies +, Gabrielle, Jim, Ed & Valerie, Gantt, JoAnne, Konrad (Alt), Steve (Carlson), (& PLEASE FORWARD TO other Reedies+ in group whose emails I couldn't find, and/or whom you'd like to invite), - and Kai! - and greetings, friends, All,

Wonderful to see Reedie Byron and Cindy (Hann MDs) in nearby-to-Canyon-94516 Moraga this afternoon, after I drove in to the SF Bay Area from Pittsburgh today, to help Byron with a building project, and to visit in their living room over a cup of kombucha and cheese and crackers. I had just driven through Canyon 94516 and past 670 Ridgecrest Road in Canyon 94516, which looked lived in with 5-7 (different) cars parked on this property, as well as stopped at the US post office in Canyon 94516, and spoke to the new African American US postmistress there about the World Univ & Sch WUaS and my PO box 442, Canyon-94516, and told her, a US federal government employee my name (Scott) Gordon MacLeod and mentioned too I have been in asylum on the east coast for the past 2 years +.

Robin, Byron asked whether you're in the SF Bay Area too, and I said I think you are - and driving north from a Farmworker's transportation meeting in Fresno CA (and from Alexandria VA before that, where you are based) - but that I haven't yet heard from you a 2nd time since your initial RSVP. 

Robin, since 670 Ridgecrest Road in Canyon 94516 looks occupied (by the US federal government even possibly - with  the US federal govt and states' law working effectively together in new ways), let's plan to meet for the "Proposed Reedie + book group" in Canyon 94516 at 4pm in front of the US post office building on the bench at 99 Pinehurst Rd Canyon 94516 ... and then see what develops about where to meet (eg might we possibly adjourn to Byron and Cindy's house 4 miles away in Moraga instead or similar???), per your -

Hi Scott it is great to hear from you. I am still in Alexandria VA. I am still providing technical assistance and training for tribes and communities under 50k. I will be in Fresno in December for a Farmworker transportation meeting. If I am able I will see about getting  there early. Hope all is well with you." 


Robin - where are you now, and how are your plans taking shape to come to 670 Ridgecrest Road in Canyon 94516 tomorrow Sat Dec 14, 2024? 

Reed regards,

Reedies, friends, all, I continue to grow an abolition movement at MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch WUaS to protect people, WUaS students and volunteers, and in WUaS seeking to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet from here, each a Wikidata PIN # - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and by seeking to abolish the wrongful buying and selling of people in the illegal sex, drugs and violence etc industries internationally and their latent networks of violence, so please be advised and with an invitation to join this WUaS movement ... my having called the local police in around August 2022 in Canyon 94516 at Cindy Hann MD's suggestion, moved then to a safe or unsafe house north of Berkeley, fled for my life I'd say to the eastern seaboard ... and now returning to a newly safe Canyon and SF Bay Area, may be coming into possession of this house in growing further this abolition movement. 

Another possible book title for this  "Proposed Reedie+ Book group" - by Reedie
John Sheehy

Looking forward to seeing some Reedies there amd thanks so much for your RSVP  again Robin!

Here's Dorothy in "The Wizard of OZ" (1939) though saying "We're not in Kansas anymore " 
https://youtu.be/vQLNS3HWfCM ... It's 25 F in Kansas, am car camping, and will have driven through Kansas by midday tomorrow ...

 
And Hi Kai in NorCal but from Berkeley and the SF East Bay  Where are you now (and how is Reedie too, Chloe, your daughter:)? This 'read community' "Proposed Reedie Book group" circle of friends in the SF Bay Area & beyond is growing ! 

And what shall we read for 2025 -

Greetings from western Pennsylvania, and in seeking further to head west to Canyon 94516 for the "Proposed Reedie book group" ... on Saturday, December 14, 2024 ... potentially by departing Tue 12/10/2024 to drive west across the country (in my old but reliable 2016 Toyota Prius c) ... and to show too my serious interest in moving WUaS forward into a newly safe Canyon 94516 (and per this recent email to "California Assemblymember for CA Assembly District 16 re Contra Costa county, and Canyon 94516 (in the SF Bay Area east bay)" and around 25 other friends and contacts too ... 
which is here in this daily blog post beginning "Thursday, December 5, 2024
Calochortus: Philosophy & "The Way of Life" by Lao Tzu, and "The Way of the Gene, and Ethics: Aging Reversal, Extreme Longevity, and Sex" - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2024/12/calochortus.html), a book I'm waiting to write and potentially in conversation with the incredible Gemini conversational generative AI artificial intelligence. See some or many of you on Saturday, December 14, 2024 sometime around or after 4pm Pacific Time :)

And, Fantastic Stephanie (stephanie@outervoices.org) ... your Outer Voices' newsletter ... and thank you for Outer Voices with your tremendous "small, independent media team dedicated to grassroots underheard voices" (re Outer Voices in the sometimes warmer Virgin Islands than Woods Hole MA area in the winter), and thanks so much for your wonderful email newsletter message recently in PPPPPS (Could it even be a kind of indirect RSVP to the "Proposed Reedie book group" ... in Canyon 94516 ... at some point?) ... and super to visit Harbin Hot Springs with you some years ago ... Your INCREDIBLE Reed Religion major (Anthropology too especially) thinking energy comes through in this your most recent Outer Voices' "Here, GRAND CANYON!" 'newsletter' - https://mailchi.mp/a16fb93ef795/here-grand-canyon?e=14bfba8b41 ...

(and regarding the children's book you mention, I think I'd like to add  (another short too!) book suggestion "Ferdinand the Bull" by Munro Leaf (1936) :) ... maybe for 300 years out ... and re children's books as possibly short books for this Proposed Reedie Book group ... and even regarding - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Children%27s_Literature_and_Wisdom (accessible from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects) ... and the WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki is developing ... if only (as a bit alienating) with fundraising banners across the top of many of WUaS 743 wiki subjects, potentially from the Wikimedia Foundation ... and hopefully only very temporarily  :)

So, see some of you on Sat 12/14/24 around or after 4pm at 670 Ridgecrest Rd, Canyon 94516 (about 8 miles southwest of Berkeley, and accessible with Google Maps too I think), and to talk about the very shore book (I'm calling this), "The Desiderata"  - https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html - I hope ... for the inaugural "Proposed Reedie+ Book group" ... and please share further some titles ... I realize some of us don't know each other, but please feel free to come (with a friend potentially, if helpful) ...  

And Perhaps we can begin on Saturday to develop a list of about 12 book titles for 2025 that we've read and would like to suggest for this "Proposed Reedie+ Book group" in the SF Bay Area ... (and possibly even create a book group for the centuries and millennia ahead ... with aging reversal and extreme longevity genetic drug therapies emerging :)

Here, Grand Canyon!


View this email in your browser
Phyllis Yayotewa and her granddaughter, both of whom were raised in Grand Canyon National Park, watch a Hopi dance performance in front of the Park Visitor Center. 
It’s winter here in the New England town that Outer Voices calls home. The sun is barely making it above the horizon in these waning days of the year. It’s cold enough here on Cape Cod that the inlets are getting a skim of ice. The winter birds are returning, the winterberry is on fire. It’s a good time for new beginnings, and we are at a new beginning. 
 
We are thrilled to announce that our work at Grand Canyon National Park is now underway. We're embarking on the work of creating an audio tour embedded into a story map, that tells the story of the Park from the perspective of the people who are from the land that the Park occupies. 
 
This is the home of the Hopi Tribe, Pueblo of Zuni, Navajo Nation, Yavapai-Apache Nation, Havasupai Tribe, and the Hualapai Tribe. It’s also the home of the Kaibab, Moapa, San Juan and Las Vegas Bands of the Southern Paiute, and the Paiute Indian Tribe of Southern Utah. All of these eleven tribes call the Grand Canyon home.

In a nutshell, we hope that by listening to this tour, visitors to the Canyon - both in person and virtually - will conjure for themselves a sense of the intimacy of what it is to truly call a place home – in this case, that place is what we call Grand Canyon. Maybe in this way listeners can align themselves more closely with the people from this place, stand in their shoes a little bit, building a little common respect and mutual understanding. 

We created a pilot for this project back in April of 2023. Using tape recorded by Ryan Christensen, we created an introduction to hiking in Grand Canyon, by James Uqualla, Havasupai; and a guided tour of the murals at Desert View by Ed Kabotie, Hopi -  please give it a listen.
 
We’re immensely grateful to the people from the eleven tribes who have shared with us with so far, shaping how the work is done. We’re equally grateful to numerous Park staff who have met with us and discussed how to best collaborate with the Park to make it all happen. 
We’re honored to partner with the Grand Canyon Conservancy in doing this work, thanks to the vision and commitment of the leadership and board members and staff – a special shout out to Christina Armold and to our vital connecting link, Jenn O’Neill. Gratitude to Jan Balsom of Grand Canyon National Park for her vision in making this all happen in the first place. Park Superintendent Ed Keable’s commitment to raising indigenous voices in the Park and enthusiastic support for this project has made it possible. 

We’ll be working on this over the next couple of years. Please stay tuned. 

Meantime, great new work from Outer Voices people keeps emerging.
Cathy Fitzgerald, the queen of all things magical and mythical, has published her first children’s book, Pinch Perkins and The Midsummer Curse with Harper Collins. The very best idea is to ask your local bookstore to order it. 
John Biewen just launched Capitalism, the latest deep dive podcast series from his award winning Scene on Radio. Please take the time to give it a listen. 
 
Can we adequately express our amazement and gratitude at still being here, twenty-one years after we first started our work? 
Nope. 
It has not often been an easy ride, keeping afloat a small, independent media team dedicated to grassroots underheard voices. 
It’s taken every kind of macgyvering to persevere. 
In the end, Outer Voices’ work is truly a testament to the power of community – local and global. Every single person reading this has been a part of all this in some crucial way. 
 
So thank you, from all of us, on behalf of everyone whom we have had the greatest honor to collaborate with in telling their stories, from their perspective, in the way they have wanted to have them told, and heard. 
What a difference we have all been able to make. 
Finally, we invite you to be part of bringing more underheard stories to the airwaves and the internet. 
Join the many folks who support Outer Voices here.
 
Here’s to a warm and kind winter season for us all. 
 
Many thanks for all you do,
 
Stephanie Guyer-Stevens

Would love to begin growing these 11 Grand Canyon Native American tribes' languages at WUaS - 

"This is the home of the Hopi Tribe, Pueblo of Zuni, Navajo Nation, Yavapai-Apache Nation, Havasupai Tribe, and the Hualapai Tribe. It’s also the home of the Kaibab, Moapa, San Juan and Las Vegas Bands of the Southern Paiute, and the Paiute Indian Tribe of Southern Utah. All of these eleven tribes call the Grand Canyon home."

And how can we grow the following in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForTraveling with a #RealsticVirtualHarbin Hot Springs +? - 

"In a nutshell, we hope that by listening to this tour, visitors to the Canyon - both in person and virtually - will conjure for themselves a sense of the intimacy of what it is to truly call a place home – in this case, that place is what we call Grand Canyon. Maybe in this way listeners can align themselves more closely with the people from this place, stand in their shoes a little bit, building a little common respect and mutual understanding. "

I enjoyed the pace, and cadence, rhythm and language of this, and wonder if I could actually walk down to the bottom of the virtual Grand Canyon from home listening to this poetry prose -

"We created a pilot for this project back in April of 2023. Using tape recorded by Ryan Christensen, we created an introduction to hiking in Grand Canyon, by James Uqualla, Havasupai; and a guided tour of the murals at Desert View by Ed Kabotie, Hopi -  please give it a listen."

Two books that I enjoyed immensely and which I might suggest for a year or two hence are:

 Nobel Laureate's Kazuo Ishiguro's 
"Klara and the Sun" (2021) 

and the comic novel 

Kiran Desai's 
"Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard" (1998)
( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hullabaloo_in_the_Guava_Orchard ) "


MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School is growing, and this Canyon place may become the its first property INCREDIBLY ... and to grow too there a Physical-Digital WUaS Academic Medical Center (online in all ~200 countries) with virtual Harbin Hot Springs' warm water cure (and perhaps we can check out the cattle trough above beautiful Indian Valley about 1/3 mile from 670 on East Bay MUD land, which could become a physical simulacra of actual Harbin Hot Springs, and for physical-digital research and related processes at WUaS), and with WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute ...

Perhaps this first "Proposed Reedie+ book group ..." in Canyon will help inaugurate the above World University and School growth intellectually or re the 'life of the mind' as well :) (And the Desiderata "book" as prose poem too is short! )


In yesterday's open 12/2/24 WUaS News and Q&A, I explore further, re Reedie Tym Lenderking -  
"such that you, T.., might become US Secretary of State in 2028 or at least further up the list? "
Check it out :) 

Reed regards, warmly, see you soon I hope (in 2 Saturdays potentially), all best,

Huge development re "Proposed Reedie book group ...", first one in Canyon 94516?, but am not sure when our first get together will be now - 

from (Cuttyhunk friend from the late 1960s ... & now potentially in the US federal government too) David Thurston on Sat Nov 23 2024 early in the morning about my and WUaS moving west to a newly safe Canyon 94516 in the next month or so.

Good luck with your move and we'll have to catch up another time in the future. I wish you success in California!

Please stay tuned about Saturday December 14, 2024 in Canyon 94516, but I think it likely that I won't begin moving west with MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch into Canyon 94516, departing Pittsburgh, PA, until around Tue December 31, 2024 ... so might we explore 3rd Saturdays of the month for the "Proposed Reedie book group ..." in 2025 ... first possible Proposed Reedie + book group now on Sat Jan 18, 2025 ... and in Canyon 94516 ...

It's difficult to envision what living to 250 years of age or longer will be like, let alone the effects of aging reversal genetic drug therapies, with potentially FDA approved genetic drug therapies emerging, and regarding family, but am exploring some aspects of this here -  



and - 

with implications for the Proposed Reedie book group ... first one in Canyon 94516 as well ? :)

How are you all doing? Book title suggestions for Proposed Reedie book group in Canyon 94516 in 2025? Thanks so so much again for your RSVP Robin ! 


Reed regards, more later, warmly, 
Scott



PS

Here's the Gemini AI riff on ... and more - 


Riffing on "The Way of the Gene, and Ethics: Aging Reversal, Extreme Longevity, and Sex" ...



* * 
The Way of the Gene, and Ethics: 
Aging Reversal, Extreme Longevity, and Sex 

And regarding Harvard and MIT prof of genetics' George Church's research into aging reversal genetic drug therapies emerging

AND
Regarding The Tao Te Ching or The Way of Life book title especially of ancient Taoist philosophy by Lao Tzu

How would you riff with this possible book and title? What would you think in terms of riffing this book would be about? 






Riffing on "The Way of the Gene, and Ethics: Aging Reversal, Extreme Longevity, and Sex"

This title suggests a fascinating exploration of the ethical implications of groundbreaking scientific advancements. It appears to delve into the intersection of genetics, bioethics, and human desire. Here's a potential riff on the book's content:


Potential Themes and Topics:

 * Ethical Implications of Genetic Engineering:
   * The moral dilemmas surrounding altering the human genome.
   * The potential for unintended consequences and societal disruption.
   * The role of regulation and oversight in genetic research.

 * The Pursuit of Immortality and Extreme Longevity:
   * The psychological and societal impacts of indefinite lifespan.
   * The economic and resource implications of an aging population.
   * The potential for a new era of human evolution.

 * The Role of Sex and Reproduction in a Post-Aging World:
   * The future of human sexuality and relationships.
   * The impact of genetic engineering on human reproduction.
   * The ethical considerations of creating designer babies.

 * The Taoist Perspective on Genetics and Longevity:
   * The harmony between nature and technology.
   * The balance between individual desire and collective well-being.
   * The importance of mindfulness and moderation in the pursuit of longevity.


Possible Book Structure:

 * Part I: The Science of Aging Reversal
   * A deep dive into the latest research and technologies.
   * An exploration of the genetic mechanisms underlying aging.
   * A discussion of the potential benefits and risks of genetic interventions.

 * Part II: The Ethical Landscape
   * A critical analysis of the moral implications of genetic engineering.
   * A consideration of the social and economic consequences of extended lifespan.
   * A debate on the right to choose and the limits of human enhancement.

 * Part III: The Taoist Perspective
   * A philosophical exploration of the meaning of life and death.
   * A discussion of the role of nature and technology in human flourishing.
   * A call for a balanced approach to aging, longevity, and genetic engineering.

By blending cutting-edge science with ancient wisdom, this book could offer a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the future of humanity.
Would you like to brainstorm more specific chapter titles or potential arguments within these themes?

Tym and I may meet for a hike next Saturday 11/23/24 in the DC area, a week before I may head west from Pgh to the SF Bay area as US federal law and states' law work effectively together in new ways! 

Thanks much for your RSVP to the Proposed Reedie book group on Sat 12/14/24, Robin and as a US federal lawyer ...!

Looking forward potentially to this first Proposed Reedie book group on Sat 12/14/24 ... and what book titles would you suggest for subsequent months, as well as possibly locations too ... January in Canyon 94516 again on the 3rd Saturday ... and then at someone else's place on the 3rd Saturday of February 2025 and beyond ?

Reed cheers,
