Robot on surfboard - how to create this?

Then robot as sailor (on Laser sailboat eventually)?

Balance & water are two goals

Do this with Lego eventually?

And re the ACTUAL < > VIRTUAL?

Do It Yourself (DIY) robotics?

Extruded Lego for rounded, gummy and fishy robotic forms?
(here's a start - http://motionworks.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Lego23.jpg)

Harbiniana for Watsu at Harbin Hot Springs, both actually and virtually - and in a realistic virtual earth?

What data to collect, per above data surfer?

Ocean temperatures?

Nuclear radiation?

Docks and streets are relatively static (e.g. unchanging height-wise) over decades. How best to explain this flooding - https://www.mvtimes.com/2018/03/05/another-storm-targets-marthas-vineyard/… - in terms of global warming and sea level rise, and what's ahead? @GrantSchenck How fast is sea level rising?:https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/972579245535870977… ~

Add Safecast Geiger counter to surfboard, or Lego robot?

*

Hello Susan, Jean, Lillian, Hugh and All,

Just Tweeted:
Congratulations @Joi @medialab for finally making it into @PopMech! Would love for World University and School @WorldUnivAndSch to make it into the @PittsburghPG @lthomas_pg !

What MIT Media Lab Director Joi Ito is referring to is his Safecast Geiger counter- and per the 2011 Fukushima earthquake:

"The DIY Geiger Counter That United Scientists After Fukushima
http://popm.ch/uBakca6"

I don't think Geiger counters for citizens were around in 1979 when we were all dealing with Three Mile Island nuclear accident.

What is the state of nuclear accident preparedness in PA today? (Does anyone know if potassium iodide is stockpiled, by any chance, for example?)

Still would like to make it to the Washington, PA, Scottish Country Dance ball, - but am sending my regrets for this year :)

Scott

My father, Gordon K MacLeod MD, was Secretary of Health of the State of Pennsylvania when the Three Mile Island nuclear accident occurred in 1979, and criticized the lack of preparedness of the PA government. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_K._MacLeod)

Hi Susan, Jean, Rob, Janie, Hugh and All, 

Just added some of this (i.e. my earlier email today) to my blog post from today - 

I could conceivably even "land" the MIT Media Lab faculty position if World University and School got into the Pittsburgh-Post Gazette, I would think!

Regards, 
Scott
