Red kite (Milvus milvus): 'nother good Allman Bros' concert, from 2003 * * * Bay Area Stammtisch * * * Unitarian Universalists on Cuttyhunk

Previous: Full moon: My computer said it's Pin Mazumdar's birthday next Friday, July 23rd, and on the Cuttyhunk Ferry, I had asked Google Voice what time high tide on the full moon on July 23rd is ... 5:56 pm it showed me ... will check the Fish Dock then to see with my own eyes about oceans rising regarding Global Warming ... and the very humid summer once again on Cuttyhunk ... science in action opportunity :) * * * a Quaker (officially even re the RSoF), but with nontheistic Friendly thinking ... And a bit of a Friendly conscientious objector to some extent and re Quakers even. Am also a Yogi in some ways - http://www.scottmacleod.com/yoganotations.html (with a deep appreciation of India thinking) - and a Taoist (re Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu's writings), and an Actual-Virtual Harbin Hot Springer or Harbinite (but not really regarding Heart Consciousness Church, or HCC, or NACOB too), a poet (4 books), and an anthropologist (& sociologist, and a Castellian re Manuel Castells), philosopher, SSP bagpiper musician, an agnostic with atheist tendencies, and a professor, an information technologist, and president, and identify somewhat Scottish (American) too ... All re identity-questions (a social science focus) ... So I guess such eclecticism could be very much UU esp

Dear Stammtischlern, 

No Stammtisch today (eg in 20 minutes)... Due to poor wifi access, I'm sorry to write.

No Stammtisch next week either since I'll be beginning my journey back west to California, from the east coast, Massachusetts.

Betsy, (John, UUs, Cuttyhunkers, All),


Thanks Betsy for asking about UUs, and you, as minister, streaming from Cuttyhunk too, when we talked in front of the MacLeod house and regarding that not operating satellite dish on our house I pointed to ...

Some further brainstorming here re improving Cuttyhunk WiFi -

There's a satellite dish on the right side of the roof of the little 2 room house-let I lived in with a porch for 12-13 years in #Canyon94516 which I think provides mesh internet access to all Canyon surfers (with other internet streams into Canyon too). Could this work on #Cuttyhunk? 
https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1419027973223636992?s=19 (thanks to Twitter for making it able to share this pic!) 

I think the connection is in Moraga CA about 3 miles away ...

Could this work for 14 miles away, from MacLeod's house, and the Tabor house, from Cuttyhunk MA to the mainland - with direct lines of sight connectivity ?

The MacLeod's Cuttyhunk house where I am is having internet streaming issues presently, and Cuttyhunk network engineer Grant Schenck just said that a satellite to the mainland wouldn't work, that 2 other options would, but as I think about Canyon re this picture, I'm wondering whether it's worth checking out with other experts in that specific area. Could even the uniformed services have helped install the Canyon dish? Could they help on Cuttyhunk? (The MacLeod house has direct point to point connectivity ... And then could much of Cuttyhunk get "Google Nest" WiFi Mesh hubs - and everyone gets good internet for once after decades?) 

Thank you much, and Friendly UU Regards,
Scott

I added the previous UU email here -
