Hi Ma, Thanks for your email! Glad regarding your mentioning the coyote I saw and texted you about that you're getting and reading my texts and my emails +! Re a Unitarian Universalist vision for social justice WITH the law (which I think I share with you), am wondering how the idea of AGENCY (per my email to you and David) plays a role here too.  Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow morning as well in Zoom online in 'virtual Cuttyhunk' - probably in the Cuttyhunk Town Hall and with some familiar faces! It will be interesting to see what we learn about coronavirus pandemic safety on Cuttyhunk this summer! (I've been emailing Ed a bit further about whether and how Canyon 94516 could be a dangerous situation, and I think he understands; I wonder what roles A) law, B) medicine and C) psychiatry might be playing newly here even).  Brainstorming idea: It would be fascinating if we could add so many Zoom video 'backgrounds' from the period over the coronavirus pandemic into a single interactive realistic virtual earth - kind of a new idea too (and am thinking of piping them all into Google Street View)!  Taylor will be traveling this evening, so no piping lesson, but we'll resume next week, he wrote too (I think we're at around his 16th lesson). Am playing my Scottish small pipes daily before heading to bed as well ... and toward my upcoming "Honey in the Bag" SSP album!  If we do find out in the BoS meeting that Cuttyhunk is a safe place to visit tomorrow, I'd like to keep open the possibility of heading there this year even nevertheless. (I might even meet a life partner on the journey there ... and tempus fugit! )  Just connected with my former housemaster George Preston and friends, Andrew Lownie and Yuen Lok Mok, from my year at Fettes College earlier and regarding, too, a great video from its current Fettes head of school Helen Harrison with many cultural insights into the pastoral care aspect of a Scottish education as well as Fettes academic focus - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/07/olrogs-gull-pastoral-care-and-academic.html (but unfortunately this video is private).  And after my good meeting with CEO Yvain at MOOCit France as a service provider yesterday for migrating CC-4 MIT OCW into WUaS Open edX, I hope my big educational project will make possible free-to-students' online best STEM CC-4 OCW-centric Bachelor degrees to Fettesian students as early as September 1, 2020.  Am finding the Scottish identity themes playing out here further - in my studying there for 2 separate years, playing the bagpipes (formerly the highland pipes and now the Scottish small pipes), in family NAMES - and am exploring it also in this family history here - http://scottmacleod.com/ScottMacLeodFamilyHistory.htm - which is growing. I want to ask you more about the names, like Monroe in your grandfather's name, Oscar Monroe Gilbert MD, and am curious too about James A Brown, Grandpa's grandfather, and re Scotland too. What do you recall of James A Brown if anything? :) L, Scott --  - Scott MacLeod  - http://scottmacleod.com

Many themes of community, singing, Scottish identity, goodness (re pastoral care), and


Inspiring, ~ Head Harrison! Made the corners of my mouth 'un-droop.' (I heard echoes of John Cleese even, a bit too :).
