Dear Chris (Lish) and Virginia (Bones) in the National Park Service, (and Peter Norvig, Google AI Director, and Stanford Distinguished Education Fellow), all,
Greetings, and great to meet and talk with you at Pt. Reyes National Seashore, at Drakes' Beach, and regarding a #RealisticVirtualEarth, a #RealisticVirtualEarthForHistory - to which we could all wiki-add resources and interpretations too - and think wiki-adding to Google Street View with G Time Slider in an emerging iterating realistic virtual earth for everything; - and regarding the 1960s and 1970s, for example, which we talked about at the Kenneth Patrick Visitor Center and re Veronza Bowers & the different interpretations of what happened - and a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGeology a #RealisticVirtualEarthForArchaeology a #RealisticVirtualEarthForPaleontology, a #RealisticVirtualEarthForMuseums, and a #RealisticVirtualEarthForWetlands (and a #RealisticVirtualEarthForOceans and for RealisticVirtualEarthForEvolutionaryBiology ) +.
And brainstorming it would be great if WUaS matriculated students, and students across the USA and in other countries, could begin to build out in this #Realsitic Virtual Earth and potentially with something like Stornaway Story Mapper interoperating with Google Street View with time slider (and even interoperating with the Scratch block programming language out of MIT and Harvard, and which works with Lego Spike Prime robotics' kits - and where World Univ & Sch WUaS is an authorized reseller of Spike Prime, and is planning to develop world class universities in each of all 200 countries and in their main languages, and in a #RealisticVirtualEarthFor ... as well as with Gemini Omni and other Google AI with voice platforms) and see these Stornaway Story Mapper developers and use cases about which I just learned of -

And Chris, it would be really great even if our conversations were recorded on video or in audio from Sat June 13th 2026 at the Kenneth Patrick Visitor Center for example to add these initially to such an iterating Google Street View with GTime Slider iterating realistic virtual earth for everything - and with you Chris as one key historian of Pt. Reyes National Seashore. And how to add also ALL the actual bones in the Pt. Reyes National Seashore and the National Park Services' archives, and their 3D images, and their provenances, and newly with AI and ML so that all of us could ask questions and do further research with these resources - in such a realistic virtual earth for everything and as World University and School classrooms and in WUaS STEM field sites which we can all create, evolutionary biology-wise too ? And as I mentioned World University and School is in a #GrowWithGoogleWUaS program and with regard to all of Google's remarkable AI and ML (with #hashtags on #TwitterX and sometimes on #LinkedIN) - and as WUaS seeks to deploy with a full US federal toolkit.
I created a set of TwitterX posts with the kernel of this idea further here, and in the PS -
(I used the Harbin Hot Springs' gate house URL in Google Street View with time slider above with its 3 dates presently of 2007, 2012, and 2024 since I couldn't find the Point Reyes National Seashore Google Street View URL with its multiple dates that you found quickly and showed me Chris at the Visitor Center ... and since I'm seeking for my 2nd Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic book project, #TextInTheSideBar to develop a #RealisticVirtualHarbin Hot Springs AS iterating socio cultural anthropological ethnographic field site, and for soaking at from home in our home bathtubs and in visiting virtual Harbin for example -

http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ... as well as a #RealisticVirtualCalifornia, and all 200 countries' #VirtualCountries ... and think Google Street View with time slider, GMaps, GEarth, GeminiAI Google AI studio (for voice) with little Pegman becoming our #AvatarAgents and #
AvatarAgentElectronicHealthRec
ords ; the WUaS Press is seeking to invent the book anew even with a #
RealsiticVirtualEarthForPublis
hing and to publish 1) to paper and 2) to new hardware devices such as Digital Glasses and even WUaS Multimedia Rooms eg -
How to view Google Street View in a smart meeting room.
https://youtu.be/q9FBhEAXRY4; I am interested for example in speaking with Sunheart Sunheart again as avatar agent and with Natural Language Processing, my main ethnographic informant im my first Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic book "Naked Harbin Ethnography" ) ...
and see also the beginning
http://worlduniversityandschool.org/ home page for other planned developments for a realistic virtual earth as well - and to click through to TwitterX as a WUaS idea generator in these regards. And how might it be possible to use the DNA in all the bones of the National Park Services' collections to even de-extinct extinct species, in the way that Harvard and MIT Professor of Genetics' George Church is beginning to de-extinct the wooly mammoth (which last may have gone extinct 'only' about 4000 years ago near what is now Alaska and the Bering Strait - by adding very ancient DNA to living Asian Indian elephants for example - but especially and newly in a #
RealisticVirtualEarthForDeExti
nction AND a #
RealisticVirtualEarthForGeneti
cs))?
And might you, Chris and Virginia, be in positions in your National Park Service careers to develop this #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics and a #RVEforEverything and as World University and School WUaS continues to seek to deploy with the full US federal toolkit? WUaS is also seeking to develop in this #RealisticVirtualEarth #AvatarAgents or #AvatarBots of individual organisms and historical figures too as #AvatarAgentElecctronicHealthRecords (for Extreme Longevity and Aging Reversal genetic drug therapies emerging too) AND with whom we will be able to converse (eg with Veronza Bowers Jr with his Black Panthers' history too for example ... and since he's still alive even) in a #RealticVirtualEarth #ForDialogues #ForClassrooms.
How might we explore proceeding and regarding building on your role as #WebPageEngineer #ChrisLishNPS, at #PRNS
I'll add you to the free open World University and School WUaS News and Q&As which meet on Mondays at 10 am Pacific Time emailings.
Great to meet and talk with you, Chris, and thanks.

Virginia Bones mentioned in this article -
(and Virginia, I've visited the historic Chinese heritage site close to the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument in eastern Oregon, and can see how a #RealisticVirtualEarth will be an incredible way to work with, categorize, and make accessible for research
+ bones and fossil in brand new iterating ways and with AI and ML and information technologies).
