2020 Nov election - Robb, Briscoe, MacLeod * * Alden (Briscoe), All, "Your Ma's GREAT interview (Martha Brown Briscoe) - https://www.salisburyassociation.org/archives/oral-history/briscoe-martha (and about Democracy too! - with such great information about farming Silent Meadow Farm, and the wider community around Lakeville, CT) - inspires me to explore doing interviews with family members, along these lines - and online esp. (in Covid-19 pandemic).
Am curious too how, brainstorming-wise, it might be possible to involve in this the 'shoebox' of family genealogical information into a digitizaTION process - and thus access further family history details, based on texts+. I wanna digitize my shoebox - and re book citations too even (eg sentences from "Hunting Lieutenant Chadbourne" +)..."

Mark, family historians,Now I'm seeing 6 people of James Edward MacLeod's generation (up from 4 yesterday), and was able to merge Margaret Barnes here with her duplicate, - using "Merge with Duplicate" tool. Thanks, and regards, ScottI was beginning to merge duplicates yesterday en masse before the 'technical problem' occurred which is still happening - how do you see the duplicates further when almost the whole / entire family tree is down - and especially with Grandad and Grandmother Gordon and Margaret's brothers and sisters, but all over? And I changed for example Aunt Mary Regina MacLeod Kennedy's birth date from the 1950s to 1920s ...I also want to begin to understand further the 9? generations from Benjamin Chadbourne to Sarah Bolles in the Theodore Lincoln Chadbourne family treehttps://www.ancestry.com/genealogy/records/theodore- lincoln-chadbourne-24-1cxsv9 and regarding his father Lt. Col. Alexander Scammell Chadbourne 1831 - 1900 too.

Scott: Thanks. My father, John D’auby Briscoe (he sometimes left off the apostrophe) was born in Detroit in 1902. He graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.S. in engineering. He studied for some time (at least a semester, perhaps a year) at Cambridge University in England. He got an MA in English at Columbia. He did some teaching (English) at the University of Wisconsin. He was a graduate student in English at Harvard from about 1933 to about 1939 when my parents bought the farm in Lakeville. He decided not to complete the ph. D. in English but was awarded an M.A. in English from Harvard. Yes, he and my mother Martha had two sons (John Alexander Holway Briscoe and Alden Frank Briscoe

James Edward MacLeod married his first wife, Ann Bulger, July 4, 1850. They had 7 kids, of whom 6 survived. Who came before her?
After his first wife died, he was married again in PEI, this time to Margaret E. Barnes; they had 7 sons: Edward, Henry, Charles, Frederick, Ernest James, William, J. Gordon, and 2 daughters: Mary Gertrude, and Amy. (All born on PEI?) Ernest James MacLeod was my great, great grandfather, one of whose sons Gordon had Gordon (1929-2007) (http://www.pitt.edu/~gmacleod
My father, Gordon K. MacLeod MD, was an Internal Medicine MD, and a Professor of Public Health. He was also the Secretary of Health in the State of Pennsylvania responsible for handling the Three Mile Island nuclear catastrophe in 1979, as well as president of the faculty senate at the University of Pittsburgh toward the end of his career there (https://en.wikipedia.org/
My parents, Gordon K. MacLeod MD and Janet Kirkbride Brown MacLeod (1935-) have two children, myself and my brother Sandy, aka Alexander Brown MacLeod (https://
In addition, I'm researching the Mary Glynn family, my great grandmother who married my great grandfather Ernest MacLeod. She was born in St. John's, Newfoundland. Who came before Mary Glynn?
I'm also researching my paternal grandmother's father's family. His name was John Driscoll and was born in County Cork, Ireland and married Catherine Ryan who was born on Banquet Hill, County Tipperary. Who came before them?
My father's eldest brother was Francis Earnest MacLeod.
My mother's father's father was
Alden Hugh Brown (1869-1919) and he married Martha Holway Chadbourne (1871-1909), who died in childbirth, having given birth to a) Alexander "Sandy" Chadbourne Brown, my mother's father, so my grandfather, b) Mary Chadbourne Brown, and c) Martha Holway Brown Briscoe ("Aunt Marf"). Sandy and Rachel Gilbert Brown had Theodore "Ted" Chadbourne Brown, and Janet "Janie" Kirkbride Brown MacLeod (my mother), Mary Chadbourne Brown had Edward "Denny" Titus MD, and Martha HB Briscoe, with John "Jack" D Briscoe, had John and Alden Frank Briscoe, all favorite uncles, cousins and family members of mine.
Benjamin Lincoln, in the Chadbourne line, received the sword of surrender from the British in the Revolutionary War and fought in Shay's rebellion. I'm familiar with some of the Chadbourne history through William Chadbourne in England in the late 1500s but don't know who preceded him. William Chadbourne (1582 - aft. 1652) crossed the Atlantic on the Pied Cow (Pide-Cowe) in 1634. Lt. Alexander Scammel Chadbourne of Maine, I think, (See Jim W. Corder's book "Hunting Lieutenant Chadbourne" which contains letters by my grandfather, ACB, as well as being a good read) who fought in the War of the Rebellion and the Battle of Chickamauga around 1862, is also in this line. Fort Chadbourne in Texas is named after him.
Sarah Bolles (b. January 20, 1656/57), who married Humphrey Chadbourne (14 generations back from this author), reportedly comes from a long, documented line of kings and queens in Scotland, England and France (see Bacon's "The Chadbourne Family in America: A Family Genealogy"): "Sarah Bolles has a well-established royal descent from Edward I, King of England (1272-1307) and many earlier Kings of England, Scotland and France, as published in 'Ancestral Roots of Certain American Colonists' by Frederick Lewis Weis, 7th Edition [1992] compiled by Walter Lee Sheppard, Jr."
Here's what the online Encyclopedia Britannica says about Edward I:
"b. June 17, 1239, Westminster, Middlesex, Eng. d. July 7, 1307, Burgh by Sands, near Carlisle, Cumberlandbyname EDWARD LONGSHANKS son of Henry III and king of England in 1272-1307, during a period of rising national consciousness. He strengthened the crown and Parliament against the old feudal nobility. He subdued Wales, destroying its autonomy; and he sought (unsuccessfully) the conquest of Scotland. His reign is particularly noted for administrative efficiency and legal reform. He introduced a series of statutes that did much to strengthen the crown in the feudal hierarchy. His definition and emendation of English common law has earned him the name of the "English Justinian.""
Here’s what the online Encyclopedia Britannica says about Edward I’s parents:
"Edward was the eldest son of King Henry III and Eleanor of Provence. In 1254 he was given the duchy of Gascony, the French Oléron, the Channel Islands, Ireland, Henry's lands in Wales, and the earldom of Chester, as well as several castles. Henry negotiated Edward's marriage with Eleanor, half sister of Alfonso X of Leon and Castile. Edward married Eleanor at Las Huelgas in Spain (October 1254) and then traveled to Bordeaux to organize his scattered appanage. He now had his own household and officials, chancery and seal, with an exchequer (treasury) at Bristol Castle; though nominally governing all his lands, he merely enjoyed the revenues in Gascony and Ireland. He returned to England in November 1255 and attacked Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, prince of Gwynedd, to whom his Welsh subjects had appealed for support when Edward attempted to introduce English administrative units in his Welsh lands. Edward, receiving no help from either Henry or the marcher lords, was defeated ignominiously. His arrogant lawlessness and his close association with his greedy Poitevin uncles, who had accompanied his mother from France, increased Edward's unpopularity among the English. But after the Poitevins were expelled, Edward fell under the influence of Simon de Montfort, his uncle by marriage, with whom he made a formal pact. Montfort was the leader of a baronial clique that was attempting to curb the misgovernment of Henry.""Edward reluctantly accepted the Provisions of Oxford (1258), which gave effective government to the barons at the expense of the king. On the other hand, he intervened dramatically to support the radical Provisions of Westminster (October 1259), which ordered the barons to accept reforms demanded by their tenants...” The Encyclopedia Britannica continues for many more pages about Edward I.
Jeremy O'Brien is also a direct ancestor from the revolutionary war period, who fired the first naval shot, and I'm interested in how he relates to the rest of the tree. (I recall learning this from my grandmother, Rachel Gilbert Brown, too. Granny was both an 'oral historian,' - she talked a lot :) - and interested in family genealogy. She seemed especially interested in her husband Grandpa Sandy Brown's family history).
I'm also interested in who came before Alden Hugh Brown, a mining engineer.
My mother's mother's father was Oscar Gilbert, MD of Boulder Colorado, who married Agnes Kirkbride who also had roots in Missouri, Virginia, and Colorado. Some of Agnes Kirkbride's forbears, one named Jane Horn, came from Kirbythor and Appleby in the north of England, not far from Newcastle-on-Tyne. My grandmother received some heirlooms from her, because her mother assisted Jane Horn financially at some point, I think. How does she fit into the line?
My mother’s mother, Rachel Gilbert Brown, who had a great interest in family history also said that we have a Native American Cherokee ancestor, only a few generations before her. Where does he (I think) fit in the line?
Some of Oscar Gilbert's ancestors, the Powells, came from Virginia in the late 1700's. Who came before them?
There's possibly another Native American ancestor from Virginia (per cousin Susan Gilbert Harvey) in this line. And what will genetic genealogy research show?
New information?

(I think Theodore "Lincoln" Chadbourne may have raised my grandfather, Sandy Brown (ACB), and Martha Brown Briscoe (Janie and Alden's parents), when his father, Alden Hugh Brown, a mining engineer - such as yourself in a way, Mark? - had died in Colombia). Sandy, Martha and Mary Brown's mother (Alden's grandmother) had died in childbirth - ie giving birth to Martha.
It’s a little more complex than this.
Alden Hugh Brown was indeed a mining engineer. His wife was Martha Chadbourne. (Talk to your mother about Martha Chadbourne. She was written up in the book Loving Frank which is a minimally fictionalized novel about a woman – a very good friend of Martha Chadbourne – who had an affair with Frank Lloyd Wright.
Yes, Martha Chadbourne Brown died in childbirth – actually a couple weeks after my mother Martha was born. Alden Hugh Brown decided that he couldn’t keep the children so the two older children (your grandfather Alexander “Sandy” Brown, and Mary Chadbourne) were adopted by Theodore “Lincoln” Chadbourne and his wife (whose name I forget), but they felt they couldn’t adopt an infant so my mother Martha was passed around among several families for a couple years and then was finally adopted by the Higley family, who had an older child, Philo, who was born in 1900.
Hopefully, that will give you a little more information.

Any thoughts about / examples of doing great family history interviews? And similarly, thoughts about digging into the family history "shoebox' - and especially digitizing this? Mark, this could be partly to complement next years' potential MacLeod Family Reunion in Maine, since this years' didn't happen on August 1, 2020 - but thank you so much for seeking to organize this. Alden and I have been emailing in a very generative way about family history of his great (and visionary 'Democratic') parents (Jack and Martha Briscoe), and brother (John Briscoe) ... and am updating Ancestry .com and WikiTree and blog with some of this (see below).

2020 Nov election - Robb, Briscoe, MacLeod * * *
Dear Dick, Lucy, Ma, Ann, Alden,
How are you all?
An US east-coast west coast ticket with Kamala Harris, as VP running mate, and Elizabeth Warren remains a US senator increasing the possibility that Democrats might win a majority in the Senate: "2020 Election Live Updates: Joe Biden Picks Kamala Harris to Be His Running Mate" https://www.nytimes.com/live/
Might this mean that Biden, while not necessarily getting Harvard Law and Harvard thinking-networks directly, that their campaign gets Stanford's, and Stanford Laws :)?
It looks like Howie Hawkins is the Green Party candidate ...
And it looks like Angela Walker from SC is his VP running mate (https://en.wikipedia.org/
Here are the parties running for president in 2020:
Candidates with ballot access to at least 270 electoral votes
Jo Jorgensen, Libertarian Party.
Howie Hawkins, Green Party.
Rocky De La Fuente, Alliance Party.
Don Blankenship, Constitution Party.
Gloria La Riva, Party for Socialism and Liberation.
Brian Carroll, American Solidarity Party.
Bill Hammons, Unity Party.
Jo Jorgensen, Libertarian Party.
Howie Hawkins, Green Party.
Rocky De La Fuente, Alliance Party.
Don Blankenship, Constitution Party.
Gloria La Riva, Party for Socialism and Liberation.
Brian Carroll, American Solidarity Party.
Bill Hammons, Unity Party.
It's historic and great, I think, that the US has a black female VP running mate, another first! And it seems like they might win, but it ain't over until it's over!
Scotty

Appreciating the focus on labor among the Greens, and it's interesting to me too that 'striking' is still a viable form of protest in the information age.

Alden, Dick, Lucy, Ma, Ann,
Was it in Oregon in June of 2018, Alden (with Janie, Ann, Marianne, Sandy, Kate, Tim & myself visiting in a min-family reunion), when you mentioned the possibility of Kamala Harris as running for president? Very prescient!
here's Kamala's sister's Twitter - https://twitter.com/
and some related Kamala Harris articles -
Re Kamala Devi Harris's names:
The names of Kamala and Devi are from India and Kamala refers to Lakshmi
"Kamala" is Sanskrit for "lotus" [or pale red] and an alternative name for the Goddess Lakshmi who is often depicted with the aforementioned flower; whereas "Devi" is Sanskrit for "goddess" and the name of the female deity who protects ....[18]
"In Hinduism, Lakshmi is the Goddess who leads to one's goal, or lakshya, and was first mentioned in the Śrī Sūkta of the Rigveda" https://www.
Kamala - It is said that one of the postures of Goddess Lakshmi is a lotus flower, hence her name is Kamala.
As a bit of a Lacanian (psychiatrist psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan MD), am appreciative of the significance of names (https://en.wikipedia.org/
Fascinating that her father taught at Stanford, and was from Jamaica originally (https://www.marieclaire.com/
Will Democrats win the senate in 2020 with elizabeth warren and a new democratic senator (post Kamala Harris) from California? Swing states for senate 2020?

I hope this finds you all well! (Am wondering if I could somehow come into this property at 670 Ridgecrest Road, Canyon, CA 94516 even).

So far, according to the cantons, 31,116 people in Switzerland have tested positive for the corona virus, and 1939 infected people have died.
https://www.nzz.ch/wirtschaft/grenzoeffnung- einkaufstourismus-kommt-in- fahrt-ld.1561452 The Swiss national borders have been open to EU and EFTA citizens as well as travelers from Great Britain since Monday (June 15th). This means that there is once again full freedom of movement for these countries. Citizens of third countries living in these countries can also enter. However, in addition to your passport, you must provide proof of residence. When the borders open to third countries is still being clarified. Germany officially opens its borders to Switzerland 24 hours later - in the night from Monday to Tuesday. According to the State Secretariat for Migration, the reason is formal and legal.
According to its own statements, Zurich Airport is at the “beginning of a return to the new normal”. On Monday (June 15th), about 50 arrivals and departures were planned, as the airport announced. That is only a little more than at the weekend. Compared to Sunday, when the borders were still largely closed, there was no big difference in eye traffic. The stores were almost fully open on Monday, albeit with shorter opening hours. The range of shops behind the boarding pass control, however, is still greatly reduced. The airport is now expanding steadily, but the airport does not expect the shops to open fully until July 6th.
With direct flights from Sweden to Switzerland, all passengers are measured for fever. For the time being, Sweden is the only country affected by this border sanitation measure, as the Federal Office of Public Health (BAG) announced on Monday (June 15th). Switzerland reserves the right to take border sanitary measures if people are arriving from a country that has a ...PPS

The president’s approval ratings have dipped sharply but he could still beat BidenSimon Tisdall
Published on Sat 6 Jun 2020 15.15 EDT
Voter disapproval of Donald Trump’s handling of the George Floyd protests and the Covid-19 pandemic, plus the accompanying economic meltdown, have undoubtedly hurt the president’s re-election chances.But it’s unclear whether the damage is fatal. Could Trump, despite everything, still stage a comeback and beat the Democratic nominee, Joe Biden?Things are looking bad for Trump right now. His job approval rating has dipped sharply in recent days. Based on an average of 12 polls taken since 25 May the day Floyd was killed, it stands at about 43%, with 54% disapproving.Trump’s loyalist “base” is said to comprise 25-30% of voters. The remainder of the 46% who backed him in 2016 will not necessarily do so again. There are signs that key voter groups are less committed – or more fiercely opposed.A recent survey of white Christian evangelicals showed a 15% drop in support for Trump support. Among white Catholics, it dropped by 27%.Biden’s appeal among African-Americans could provide him with winning margins in swing states
Many white suburban women deserted the Republicans in the 2018 mid-terms. This group may be further alienated by the health crisis, economic uncertainty, and Trump’s divisiveness. Older voters suffering the brunt of the pandemic are said to feel abandoned while the electorate as whole is getting younger. And for the first time, a third of eligible voters are non-white.Revived fury over racial injustice may galvanise the black vote – a crucial 12.5% of the electorate – against the president. In 2016, black turnout declined for the first time in 20 years.Biden’s appeal among African-Americans, demonstrated in the primaries, could reverse that trend and provide winning margins in swing states. Among all voters, Biden’s current lead is 11%.Yet Trump has been written off before. He has the advantage of incumbency and an enormous war chest. He plays dirty. By autumn, the economy may have revived, and the pandemic subsided. And gaffe-prone Biden carries much baggage.The protests may have scared as many Middle America voters as they energised. Nobody knows how Trump’s Nixonian appeals to the “silent majority” and “law and order” will play in Peoria.One thing is certain: he’s a long way from beaten.Interesting British perspective from across the water, with 4 months to go before the election.Biden seems to be looking around some as the news' announcement of his running mate timing, perhaps, is thought through. Could Biden pick up important swing states depending on VP choice - https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/politics/ quiz-biden-vice-president- pick/ & "Election outcomes in key states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida and Arizona all come down to the same thing: the percentage of Democrats and left-leaning independents that end up casting ballots compared with the percentage of Republicans and right-leaning independents that do so. Republicans understand this campaign math and learned to solve this equation a long time ago. The only question is, have Democrats finally solved it too?" https://www.nytimes.com/2020/ 05/26/opinion/joe-biden- running-mate.html? Maybe not ...
Am still inclined toward Elizabeth Warren regarding the Biden campaign also getting Harvard thinking (and in all the swing states too) as having merit (but am not sure about the possible loss of the Mass. Senate seat) - and since 8 Harvard Alums / similar have been presidents - which is probably a higher number than most other institutions / organizations / networks / universities too - in this country.... What do you think?And China? Was the Sars-CoV-2 novel coronavirus COVID-19 a game changer in nation states' boundaries popping up in new ways, now around a biological threat, and regarding China getting rich quickly, and a shifting balance of power questions internationally? Effects on the Nov 2020 US election?

Hopefully my big project - for example ONE realistic virtual earth for pharmaceuticals / everything - will change some of these contours regarding CC-4 licensing too, and of MIT OCW in 4 languages as well, and regarding clinical trials planned with machine learning - for speakers in all 7,117 known living languages (the number rose from 7,111 recently). Am not clear how this shelter-at-home approach in much of USA, with current coronavirus meme pandemic, will affect the November election, or online pharmaceutical drug development, or for that matter data-sharing, but 'society' seems a bit different newly, and growing fulsomely online. Was there some precipitating radical action that has informed these changes? Am developing "coronavirus" meme 'radical action' inquiries here https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/03/mt- shasta-at-sunrise-inquiring- here-was.html (and in some of 18 recent blog posts - my mother has encouraged me to keep a journal in these times, and my blog is this in some ways) - and I wonder what implications for November there might be here re shelter at home and radical actions too. (Harvard and MIT Prof of Genetics' George Church continues to call for lock downs - https://twitter.com/geochurch/ status/1240795005524086785?s= 20 ). Was a little started to observe Dr. Tony Fauci MD suggesting on front page of Sunday Boston Globe yesterday that 100,000 people could die from coronavirus, and here too:"Dr. Anthony Fauci says there could potentially be between 100,000 to 200,000 deaths related to the coronavirus and millions of cases. “I just don’t think that we really need to make a projection when it’s such a moving target, that you could so easily be wrong,” he adds. #CNNSOTU"
> https://twitter.com/CNNSotu/status/1244275909944885248?s= 20 (And am appreciating both Harvard Professor of Economics' Greg Mankiw's support of Fauci, here again - Here's Harvard Professor of Economics' Greg Mankiw's "Thoughts on the Pandemic" - http://gregmankiw.blogspot.com/2020/03/thoughts-on- pandemic.html.- as well as am also a little startled at the 'severe' language both he and John Palfrey, President of MacArthur Foundation, and former Harvard Law Prof, are using regarding the 'battle' with coronavirus). Am also startled regarding the possible quarantine - Boston Globe yesterday again - or lock down even of all of New York, CT, MA ... or "strong" advisory not to travel from these states). What's happening - and regarding what? And have China and Russia somehow been successfully 'contained' as a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic (if there were expansion developments occurring), - and China, with their own new legal language - (somehow potentially in relation to the Stanford Law China Guiding Cases Project - https://cgc.law.stanford.edu - which has been translating, in a time of legal reform in China, the fairly new Beijing Supreme Courts' rulings ... and law is a writer's game, - and in Chinese/Mandarin too) - has now apparently 'closed their borders' ? ? ?Thoughts, ideas, questions, suggestions? And how are all of you doing - am appreciating that you're hunkering down, Ann, in northeastern Oregon on Wisdom Creek Ranch these weeks :) I am as well here in Canyon 94516, and the internet is making possible many new forms of sociality (which I partly teach about in this course - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/ InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv. html - as well as study). :) Lucy, Alden, Dick?

And what does November 2020 hold for less of this barrage?I found this article about Sweden to be another helpful antidote, and am appreciative of a number of lines of reasoning in these regards:"The world stands still. Only Sweden doesn't" (https://translate.google.com)It concludes (translated from German):Why do kindergartens and primary schools remain open in Sweden despite the increasing number of infections? Why is there no contact block like in Germany? Tegnell answers these recurring questions almost always the same: the epidemiological benefit of school closures in the case of the coronavirus is doubtful. Neither in Italy nor in China have schools proved to be hotspots for the virus to spread.According to studies by the World Health Organization WHO in China, there has not been a single documentable case in which an adult has infected a child. Then why should you keep tens of thousands of healthy children at home? Especially since a lot of parents who work in important jobs to fight crises could no longer go to work? Tegnell's credo: "All measures that we take must be feasible over a longer period of time." Otherwise, the population will lose acceptance of the entire corona strategy.I created some Tweets in these regards -"The world stands still. Only Sweden doesn't" (https://translate.google.com) https://zeit.de/politik/ausland/2020-03/coronavirus- schweden-stockholm- oeffentliches-leben Why do kindergartens & primary schools remain open in Sweden despite the increasing number of infections? #Coronavirus Tegnell (epidemiology) answers the same> https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Sweden~
https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/ 1242825476789243910?s=20 Out of the coronavirus #COVID-19 pandemic, we appear to have gotten 24,000 searchable related AI academic papers per MIT, a significant generation of thinking.And this PBS NewsHour yesterday - March 24, 2020https://youtu.be/0INsb8HiN4I... suggests that Hubei, China, the epicenter of the genetic COVID-19 (SARS CoV2) event, is now a model for hope in returning to a semblance of normalcy. Also, there was some mention too of $1200 / month re B.S. in this - which sounds like it could be the beginnings of Universal Basic Income experiments.And both Harvard and MIT are holding their graduation ceremonies on the internet which are amazing openings for my big project -"Harvard postpones commencement amid coronavirus pandemic, plans online event May 28" https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/03/20/nation/harvard- holding-online-commencement- may-28-amid-coronavirus- pandemic/ "MIT, Emerson to hold online graduation ceremonies"
https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/03/24/metro/mit-emerson- hold-online-graduation- ceremonies/ ... and may make possible protecting youth and students in new ways - that is with online education, and somehow culturally. But hopefully too excellent new kinds of university and high school degree education will emerge, in addition to wiki-education for open teaching and learning. How to help facilitate this to flourish in a flowering of new ways, and much regarding conversation?Am thinking that the culture and identity and language of Sweden in this coronavirus pandemic is a kind of bastion regarding mainstream internet media, and am wondering in what ways my big project in all ~200 countries' main languages can create similar online 'places' of sanity (ie less fear in the air) or semblances of 'cultural' normalcy, or absence of war mentality, - and uniquely emerging from each of these cultures online. Without knowing German, and reading the German papers, I wouldn't have otherwise found this article about Sweden - which expresses too a kind of alternative, that is, countering the culture of the mainstream internet media as counterculture (regarding novel coronavirus as memes ... in contrast to the novel coronavirusCOVID19 SARS Cov2 epidemic genes) ??? In what ways could my big project generate culture anew, - and in the way Harvard, MIT and Stanford generate knowledge-generation help-the-world culture on-the-ground, I wonder?Thoughts, ideas, questions, suggestions?

It was on the ridge road, also a fire road, near where I live in Canyon 94516, and all because of the novel corona virus COVID-19 (SARS CoV2) actually. I don't know how many times I walked back and forth on that ~ 2 mile long road, but I must have hiked all of the whirlIng John Muir Trail in the high Sierra in March that year, and some of the PCT near Tahoe. Amazing - since the snow pack was pretty heavy this year at 10,000 feet. :)

And perhaps too she'll run for President again in 2024 and win for a term or two. If Biden chose her, he'd not only get all of Harvard (re thinking), but Harvard would get another first (first woman VP candidate, I think), and from what I've observed Harvard seems to like its firsts, and writes about them a fair amount too (and these go back a number of centuries:).

Dawkins coined newly the word meme in his 1976 "Selfish Gene" book drawing a comparison to genes, but on the cultural side of life, in contrast to the biological side, and mentioning in particular, as example, the 'aggressive' rabies' virus as genes which replicate themselves by making the host mammal thirsty and aggressive/attacking - and for the the way ideas propagate from mind to mind (ranging from a favorite novel to a pretty summer dress were examples he gave, I think).

And it's the big day of Nov 3rd that counts in this upcoming US presidential election here. (I continue to think that Biden has the best chances of winning on the Democratic side, and found it interesting that he Biden says he was arrested on the way to visit Nelson Mandela - could this mean 'stopped' by security forces at a check point during Apartheid, for ex.? - see, too https://www.nytimes.com/2020/ 02/21/us/politics/biden-south- africa-arrest-mandela.html, and see, too - https://nymag.com/ intelligencer/2013/06/17- inspiring-facts-about-nelson- mandela.html and "The 1970s: The Anti-Apartheid Movement's Difficult Decade. The 1970s were a pivotal decade in the Southern African liberation struggle" - https://www.tandfonline.com/ doi/abs/10.1080/ 03057070902919991 ).

It seems like similar MIT programmers could be significant in keeping the (every growing in small ways) computing aspects of voting fair this autumn. I found this above Twitter post on Neha Narula's Twitter feed - https://twitter.com/neha - and she's the Director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative (and wonder if this Mike Specter is any relation to Arlen Specter a PA US Senator in the 1980s, beginning his term 2 years after my father was Secretary of Health during the TMI nuclear meltdown catastrophe in 1979).
