Interesting ideas regarding 'countercultural'"Varieties of Religious Experience" (per William James 1902 book, and talks at the University of Edinburgh, and offering first class in Psychology at Harvard)
Tye dye handkerchief, closed UU Church Berkeley bench, Chalice Flame - Scott
And further, in calling for abolition of the illegal sex industry internationally, - and re the social justice and abolition of slavery focuses on UUs and Quakers -I searched on
'Which countries still have slavery?' and found ...
As of 2018, the countries with the most slaves were: India (18.4 million), China (3.86 million), Pakistan (3.19 million), North Korea (2.64 million), Nigeria (1.39 million), Indonesia (1.22 million), Democratic Republic of the Congo (1 million), Russia (794,000) and the Philippines (784,000).

Seems like WUaS Corp with Stanford Mine Pi might be able to end poverty that could lead to some of the above !
(Virtual Harbin may be safer than actual Harbin re even questions of illegality ... until CA and federal law can come to play a role in bringing criminals to justice there even?

Mental Health Diseases
Hi Scott,
Mental health diseases are just like all other diseases. I don’t see them as negative — just a part of the human existence. They occur within all populations everywhere the world, every professional group, everyone in general. They are largely treatable, thank goodness, just as most other diseases are, for the most part. Nice that Ed shared some of his own experience with you; sounds like he’s a good example of what physicians are trained to do: dx and treat. And, as with everything between friends, comes the matter of trust - so congrats on earning that trust from him.
Love, Ma

Thanks, Ma!

( ... developing here some further avenues for MD psychiatry research here too, and re a single realistic virtual earth at the street view, cellular and molecular levels ... with a science focus on consciousness, and even the unconscious, in the future).
Love, Scott

Hi Ma, (Sandy, All),
Thanks again for your email on Tuesday. Re Ed and his severe mental illness (self-reported to me), and 'mental health diseases,' am a bit more worried about nelson graburn's possible psychosis (where I think psychoses are a psychiatric biological fact as disease, different from perhaps Ed's condition for example) - as a psychiatric disease - re graburn's lashing out at me, uncontrollably in recent TSWG sessions last year (and did he seek to try to end my life a number of times, - first perhaps by 'sending me' to the University of California, Santa Barbara, and re that psychiatrically ill ucsb instructor francesca bray ... ) ... where I think Ed as MD is in a position to manage graburn's illness or disease, - and even while Ed is taking mood medication. Is some of graburn's illness, and violence too (perhaps internationally), related to the international illegal sex industry (and even regarding all 10 campuses of the University of California, tragically ... ) ... regarding ethical 'tumblr-ing' too, affecting the brain into psychosis?
Thanks too when we talked on the phone last time for mentioning in response to me the words 'illegal sex trade,' when I said illegal sex industry. Distinguishing between such a trade and an industry in these heinous harming practices ... may be place specific (CA, or PA, or MA), or even institution specific (state of CA? 10 university of californias, california state universities, california community colleges???? ... but not too much the state of Pennsylvania?) ... Much opportunity for legal developments regarding the abolition of the international illegal sex industry ahead (and ending too slavery in other countries even), perhaps also via UBI experiments!
Pretty heavy 'stuff' - so thanks for your email. And I hope all of you are having a great or good day! :)
Love, and abolition-ally, Scott

Dear Ma, Sandy, All,
Remember when we used to make puns and have fun with the word 'tic' on Cuttyhunk, regarding 'antic,''spastic' etc ... There are lots of ways one can make puns about 'tic' - and Dad was a punster (funny too) and a wordsmith :) ... I think this 'tic' word, in retrospect, may have been an interesting first example of what a mental illness might manifest as, and be recognizable by physically - and as a word in the MacLeod family on Cuttyhunk - and possibly as my first introduction, in a sense, to the idea of mental disease (per your email about Ed's mental disease, Ma ... and potentially others, like graburns' - and could he possibly have called for Dad's subdural hematoma brain injury in Belize, and even the 2nd 'spontaneous' one in Pittsburgh after that ... 'out, damned spot! out, I say' from MacBeth re graburn? ... ), as I recall, and even with Dad as a smart, well-trained, physician MD, and teacher to of Medical Grand Rounds in Pittsburgh, as a quick and skillful diagnostician. And even though, also, the MacLeod family shared an Xmas meal with the Alexander family, and re George L Alexander MD and his family for 22 or 23 years, as a brilliant Yale & McGill-trained psychoanalytic psychiatrist (was he a genius? It's difficult to say what a genius is!), who studied and knew about mental illness, and could talk about it, and understand it in his patients, with great depth of understanding - to help such sufferers of such diseases. Glad psychiatry has been in existence since the mid-1800s -
"The beginning of psychiatry as a medical specialty is dated to the middle of the nineteenth century, although its germination can be traced to the late eighteenth century. In the late 17th century, privately run asylums for the insane began to proliferate and expand in size" (Wikipedia)
... and that Friends Hospital in Philadelphia is the longest continuously operated mental hospital since 1813 in the USA. Here is a good photo of the front of Friends' Hospital in Philadelphia, and re the idea of making a realistic virtual Haribn into a home asylum too

Am hoping WUaS's Medical Schools can generate excellent online psychiatry, and readily and easily accessible too, in all ~200 countries and in their main languages.
