European roller: WUaS Monthly Business Meeting Minutes for April 9, 2016

Next: Salvia hispanica: UC Berkeley Professor Nelson Graburn announced on Friday evening, in the Tourism Studies' Working Group talk at UC Berkeley (where Dean MacCannell, author of the seminal "The Tourist" from 1976, was present also), that I had PUBLISHED my Harbin book and I thanked him out loud for writing the Foreword, which I got from him early last week - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html, So great to have Nelson championing my Harbin book in many ways, For one, it makes me feel a little less alone in this first Harbin book project, Some related ideas per "Modeling Culture" in my blog post from last Sunday, as well as an approach to an "ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy" methodology I'm developing for STEM researchers, A new Academic Press at WUaS - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - also planned potentially in ALL languages, A link to this blog post to Google Street View's view of the Harbin gate, into which I hope readers will be able to enter more immersively and interactively in the future - as if entering into a world, a book and and a STEM research site virtual earth, with time slider too, planned in all 7097 + languages
