HI Autumn, Karen, Dennis and Semester at Sea friends,

Thanks so much for your nice Xmas card, Autumn - received here in Canyon 94516 recently. Re "The ornament of a house is the people who frequent it" (Ralph Waldo Emerson), I just found this on Twitter in Scottish Gaelic which seems somehow quite relevant

Karen, do you happen to speak Scots' Gaelic, by any chance? :)

Appreciating your card, Autumn, and am in the process of drafting my Seasons' Greetings' email - so stay tuned as well!

Thanks too, Dennis, for your message on my blog a few weeks ago. (I recently removed all comments, FYI, since this wasn't a very generative space for conversation - but thanks nevertheless very much).

Happy Semester at Sea sailing!

Sincerely,
Scott

Schoolab SF French educational incubator ...

Hi Dave,

Nice to talk last night after SCD. Am thinking you overlapped with John Hennessy, since he arrived at Stanford in 1977, I've read/heard (https://www.linkedin.com/in/davedeacon/).

Schoolab SF (see, for ex. - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/12/oregon-coast-range-french-educational.html?m=0) just emailed and invited us to invite colleagues from the L.I. page - https://www.linkedin.com/events/schoolabgrandopeningevent/. Would you like to go together to the Schoolab SF Grand Opening (it's from 3pm - 11pm tomorrow, Wednesday, 12/11/19), and with Ria tele-medicine networking in mind - re Ria Health in the 29 official French language-speaking countries (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/12/delta-smelt-san-francisco-bay-estuary.html?m=0), brainstorming-wise (and re World Univ & Sch's online medical schools and teaching hospitals too)?

Will seek to learn what problems Jean-Claude, Mathieu, Brittany and Cian are seeking to solve on Wednesday at the Grand Opening, Dave! (I've met Mathieu, Brittany and Cian, and am looking forward to meeting Jean-Claude at the Opening). :)

Best regards, Scott
