Cuttyhunk W Sep 20, 2023 - Bill Ardinger (Harvard Law)

Hi Bill, 

Greetings and I hope this email finds you well? 

Great to see you and talk with you near the Cuttyhunk ferry dock just now. 

Let's stay in touch about MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch and your home state of New Hampshire, and not only regarding free-to-NHstudents' World Univ and Sch degrees online from home - planning Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD, IB high school /sim, AA, and Master's degrees - with reimbursement from the NH department of Education to WUaS, but also even about an emerging New Hampshire Law School at World Univ & Sch - and as World Univ and Sch accredits, and seeks to become parts of Bar Associations too. This would have parallels with the new Iowa Law Sch at World Univ & Sch - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Iowa_Law_School_at_WUaS - in planning for Legal Tech (and with WUaS in Stanford Law CodeX), machine learning and artificial intelligence, and potentially for adding the Iowa Supreme Court case law histories as PDFs to machine learning to develop the predictive potentially of machine learning, and for Legal Tech and Supreme Courts (and see set of Tweets below).

Might you attend and participate in the first (free) Stanford Law CodeX event online in Zoom tomorrow at 4:30 pm ET https://twitter.com/CodeXStanford/status/1703907143014031419 - (and see the announcement itself).

Whose Bullseye sailboat with the name 'Cold Smoke' is that, that we were talking about? Would love to start sailing it to the old New Bedford Cuttyhunk Alert dock this autumn, tie it up, and get off and walk around that old city! :)


All the best, great to see you, thank you,
Scott





PS, if with aging reversal and extreme longevity genetic drugs emerging, the first ones potentially available and FDA approved by 2030, we may want to keep working long long into the future !

Dear John (Sargent MD), Sid (Mazumdar HHS), Ma (Janie MacLeod), Ed (Smyth MD), Peter (Norvig, Google AI), Alden (Briscoe, avuncular cousin, Brakeley Briscoe), all,  

Greetings! How are you? I hope this email finds you well! 


Good morning John, and Sid, all - from Massachusetts!

Thanks so much for calling me back, John, about a week ago, on Cuttyhunk, as your phone message said you would. You asked in our very brief conversation then again, if I would like to talk, or similar, saying you were all tied up - and I think I would like to talk with you, if at all possible please, and for safety's sake (and it could save my life here on Cuttyhunk) and as a whistleblower and in calling for abolition at WUaS especially. Some further Yogic observations, and re self study (Svadhyaya - "turning your attention inward, observing and reflecting upon your thoughts and emotions, reactions and habits, beliefs and desires"), and regarding my nervousness yesterday re 'hypos' ... and thinking about this:

A number of recent related Cuttyhunk observations, and in growing an abolition movement:

Was Will Archer in his truck modeling putting a barricade to the Fish dock between Seth Garfield and Alan Wilder's house yesterday as I went down to the Cuttyhunk ferry dock to pick up my groceries? And was this like last year when he and Russell Wright were possibly modeling barricading the road up to judith and will archer's AND alan symonds' place? And I signed off to judith archer abolitionally in a recent email regarding their borrowing the golf cart this Saturday for a wedding.

My brother sandy macleod's strange behavior this summer - in seeming to try to take over this MacLeod Cuttyhunk house for himself ... even steal the house from me tragically (and how is he entangled in illegal sex drug and violence industries and their latent networks of violence in recent years ... and even regarding my father's first subdural hematoma on Semester at Sea in Belize on 12/30/2004)

My mother's coming out only for a week this year ... and wanting for Cuttyhunk to feel safe and lovely again ...

Where is the other ferry captain John Paul Hunter? I saw his boat in New Bedford near the old Cuttyhunk Alert dock (and the public restroom) the very first morning I arrived in Cuttyhunk at around 6 am in going to the bathroom, and thought I saw Cutttyhunker ann conway standing on it even ... but when I asked her whether it was she a few days later on Cuttyhunk, she said it wasn't (and I don't know) 

Charlie Nesson's small c sign off in his email to all of us ... and what does he know, as a Harvard Law emeritus professor who is still teaching at Harvard Law and not a member of the Massachusetts' Board about the history of Cuttyhunk, the Cuttyhunk Yacht Club, stealing kids even tragically (per Dr Dimare's asking numerous times about people coming in off boats to steal kids - which I learned about from his daughter RN Sarah Dimare Atwood on 8/16/24 my first Cuttyhunk ferry ), in recent decades even ... and how is Charlie Nesson involved in organized crime too, and regarding his legal work in legalizing cannabis in many US states, but not federally, and even internationally? ... and that I think he met his wife, Fern, at Harbin Hot Springs (and that she may have been even sadly a prostitute at the time)? ... AND as I continue to develop MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch and plan to fly west to California on 10/1/23 as a Friendly Quaker leading especially ...

When I went to the ferry to pick up groceries yesterday, and began to walk toward the dock, I first saw jay merriam, a vet possibly in Colorado - and who I think sponsored or paid for John Paul Hunter's boat I learned years' ago ... and how many horses has jay merriam killed over the years, by injection or similar? And we shook hands briefly as I walked farther toward the Cuttyhunk ferry Could I even be on a possible Cuttyhunk list in these regards ... Could John Paul Hunter have also ferried prostitutes to Cuttyhunk over the years, part of jay merriam's business? ... and could jay merriam even have had him killed? ... Or could John Paul Hunter be visiting his brother in Texas who works as a prison guard - and missing a whole season of work? What are the state of Mass, New Bedford and US federal law enforcement doing in regards to the illegal sex, drug and violence industries on Cuttyhunk  ... Both John Paul, and his brother, were in the Cuttyhunk Yacht Club when I was a teacher there for 3 summers in the 1970s. 


Brent Hall (MIT alum, formerly a student in my course on "Soc and Info Tech") when I went over to their house per his invitation for cheese and drinks a few weeks ago signaling to Serena (Davis Hall) - (and re MIT's Karl Koster and Lindley Huey) by closing his fingers over his lips ... what for, and why? How might they even sadly be involved in crimes possibly on Cuttyhunk? 

When I called Holt Maness in New Bedford with his police dog Alyra and another dog Finn yesterday at noon, who came into the Abolition Row park in New Bedford MA across from the Quaker Meeting about a week ago ... he didn't pick up the phone ... newly ... but rather texted back immediately "In training right now" ... in training to be a guard of the illegal sex industry in New Bedford for Cuttyhunk bound people too ... And could have Brent Hall have guided him to me when I arrived in New Bedford last time ... 


On the ferry dock, I talked with Phil Houha, who bought the Winter House in 2018 - the big house at the top of the town - and is remodeling it ... putting in a heating system, putting in new windows ... and who is somewhat new on Cuttyhunk ... and who (yesterday) had good energy ... encouraging coming to down to the Cuttyhunk ferry dock twice a day at 11 and 3 ... and for the sociality ... which has its pluses and minuses for a variety of reasons ... and as I continue to seek to grow an abolition movement at this time of year on Cuttyhunk (Sept 20, 2023). 

Peter, the 'Google Play services'' banner across my smartphone now says its been up for 20 days, and the Triangle with the exclamation point at the top has probably been there the same length of time  ... So glad I can still email and use smartphone and laptop - and regarding all of these abolition communications for example. THANK YOU! 

ED, I received 2 Kaiser Permanente NorCal emails yesterday and the day before, one about vision coverage, the other about vaccines - re health coverage ahead ! Thank you! 

So, John and Sid, would it be possible please to talk with John about some of the above, and other questions, in the next few weeks, possibly weekly, and possibly paid for by my health coverage, as I continue to make plans for flying to the SF Bay Area on 10/1/23 and moving the WUaS Academic Medical Center with WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute back to a newly safe Bay Area around 11/1/23? John, I'll seek to call you tomorrow Th 9/21/23 about this. Thank you again!

MacLeod's Cuttyhunk oven not working, for banana bread


Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@gmail.com>

10:24 AM (5 hours ago)

to Janie, Will, juditharcher1@gmail.com, cuttyhunk.wright, Robin, Charles, Ed, John, Shawn, George, Hugh, Joichi, Friend, Matt, Nick, Peter, Prasanth, Pin, Dick, Roland, Seth, Scott, Alden, Don, Serena, Joan


Hi Ma (Janie), Will, Russell, All, 

Good morning from Cuttyhunk! I started to make banana bread with 10 day old bananas, having gotten my first ever order of groceries from WM yesterday on the Cuttyhunk ferry, but while the pilot lights on the stove are all on, the oven didn't pre-heat. Thank you, Will (via your wife J) re borrowing the MacLeod golf cart for Leslie's wedding on Saturday, and Russell (via your wife L) re your not being able to turn on the water (I found a way to turn it on anyway), for your recent emails. 

(I'm so glad Harvard Law professor emeritus replied to a number of us in another email thread the other day, and regarding all 3 of the MacLeods being owners of the MacLeod Cuttyhunk house - and that he's no longer on the Massachusetts' bar, but is teaching at Harvard Law School still, and that he can't recommend a lawyer to talk to about ownership questions. Sadly, my brother Sandy MacLeod seems to have tried to steal the house this summer from me (and possibly my mother too). I continue to wonder, in calling for the abolition of the illegal sex, drug, and violence industries, and their latent networks of violence on Cuttyhunk and internationally - how entangled Sandy is in these, tragically, and hope that he's seeing a MD psychiatrist, licensed in Maine regarding his delusions or hallucinations especially).  

Ma, Will, Russell, who is the 'official' caretaker of our MacLeod Cuttyhunk house, please? Thank you, Seth Garfield, for asking this the other day in front of your / Alan Wilder's house, and re my saying, possibly either Russell Wright, or Will Archer, I'm not sure - and your saying good. (I have recollections that Laura 'Frisky' Thurston - David, Elliott and Charlie Hulley's mother - tragically was trying to put her head in the oven, around the time she passed away.) Seth said that both you, Will and you Russell are gentlemen ... good to hear!

And how best to make the oven function now please? Try to get in touch with Lee Lombard - or could one of you, Russell or Will, whoever might be the official caretaker of our MacLeod Cuttyhunk house, come over and please turn it on?

Thank you! The bananas are in the refrigerator, and ready to bake with! 


I'm writing my next 6th book

Could someone please come over and get the oven working again, for banana bread?

Cuttyhunk regards, Abolitoinally, Friendly greetings, Yogic-ally, best wishes, thank you,

Will (Archer), all, 

Greetings - and glad we may be going to talk sometime, re your "Let's talk" or "We'll talk" comments some days ago. 


might you possibly be able please to come over to make the MacLeod Cuttyhunk house oven work, on Saturday morning, when someone comes over to pick up the golf cart, between 8 and 9 am, for Leslie's wedding? Congratulations, Leslie! (Here's Leslie and Jordana both piggy backing on me in front of Seth Garfield's and Alan Wilder's houses some years ago - https://www.flickr.com/photos/40632665@N00/3203718735/ ).

Are you visiting the Galapagos Islands with Peg or similar, by any chance? (Why is she not coming to Cuttyhunk again, by the way?).

Hi Ma! How are you? How is your week going back in Verona, Pittsburgh? Am finding the new Dustbuster vacuum is fairly effective at catching fruit flies, and I kind of go hunting for them with it, and think it's a good non-harming way to get rid of them ... and I also vacuumed up a gray spider on the peanut butter the other day, so think there's a whole ecosystem going on in the holding tank of the little vacuum, having vacuumed in some wasps and yellow jackets too ... but I'm seeking in the WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute potentially in Canyon to figure out to create an immortal Drosophila fly by adding back in the correct genes, so that it lives forever past its 3 month maximum life span, and blogged about this here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/05/red-junglefowl.html with related Tweets here - https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1531348305354969088

Ma, FYI, The WM driver tipped himself too on my WM order, something like $6.43, and on top of the delivery fee of $7.50?, and it all could have come in one banana box (which I couldn't request on WM's otherwise awesome developing IT and possibly with AI too), instead of 5 bags in 2 milk crates (so $10 at the Cuttyhunk ferry), and they didn't deliver the socks I ordered, only things from their groceries' department, but I did get the 2 vacuums and some AA batteries before, from possibly 2 other different departments ... so I"m glad to be able to order things from WM to Cuttyhunk via a website ... and it seems like ordering a very large number of things in one order, very infrequently could be the sensible value approach ... (and Pea Pod may still work too) ... Love, abolition-ally, warmly, Scott (How are you doing? - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/care)



Ma, came down to check out the new store on the gas dock which I just saw the other day, and which sign said it's open from 9-11 W today ... But it's closed ... will check back on Friday possibly ... glad to b3 in communication with John Sargent MD and re his being a psychiatrist at Tufts ..
 and re protecting. kids, women victims on Cuttyhunk ..
 Am wondering if I can get a Bullseye sailboat this autumn too ... and sail it over to near the Elm Street garage and even go shopping on a day sail :) Glad to be in communication with Holt  Maness in New Bedford and wondering if he's been a Navy Seal in the past, as an aspiring Olympic swimmer at Princeton Love, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/sailing?m=0 )

Dear Ma, 

I just checked and there are no flights on Southwest Air from Boston or Providence on Sunday evening after 6:30 pm ... Hmm ... 

I could potentially drive to Pittsburgh for my existing SW flight, arriving on Saturday, 9/30/23, with my existing flight departing Sunday around 8:30 am, and arriving in Oakland, CA around 4:30 pm ... 

And then if I can book a hotel and rental car on Sunday evening in Oakland, get there at a reasonable time, for checking in and sleeping well.  

It's a fairly long drive to Pgh leaving from where I am now, but I could leave Friday Sep 29, or Saturday Sep 30, and possibly drive through the night ... to catch the flight from Pgh on Sunday morning ... which may be worth it ... 

And it would be great to see you, to meet you for a meal, walk or similar, Ma!

Love, Scott

Ma, 

Thanks again for your email. 

Planning here further - 

When Ed called me on 8/25/23 on Cuttyhunk, he also suggested my staying in a motel or hotel in the SF Bay Area when I fly there - and having not heard back from Ed or Gantt about staying with them (with their own home dramas) - I just found this Motel 6 near the Embarcadero on the SF Bay in Oakland / Alameda ... at 1801 Embarcadero, Oakland, CA 94606 ... for $71 / night ... relatively good value comparatively.

If I'm able to change my flight to leave Boston around 9pm on Sunday Oct 1, 2023 or similar ... and arrive in the SF Bay Area after midnight on Monday October 2, I could just head from the Oakland airport to this relatively close Motel 6 on the Oakland Embarcadero.

I may see too if I can rent a low cost Budget car from the Oakland airport late on Sunday 10/1 night, or early on Monday 10/2 morning.

If this flight et al to the SF Bay Area can lead potentially to a house, possibly for a song, at 670 Ridgecrest Road Canyon 94516 (with Ed in communication with the district 7 CA state senator's office), it will be a great investment. 

Love, Scott

Hi Ma, 

Thanks so much for your communication here. 

Like a dandelion to the wind (a phrase I learned from George Alexander MD), ...

 I'll make sure the key to the Cuttyhunk house garage is under the house, so the Archers can borrow the golf cart for Leslie's wedding on September 23. (Glad I have a set of keys to the MacLeod Cuttyhunk house after all these years too! - thanks to you, and the Archers too??? )- 


...and I hope I might meet a life partner in the SF Bay Area after moving potentially west beginning around October 23,  potentially arriving November 1.

I may also seek to call Southwest Air or similar, and change my flight to fly out of Boston (instead of from Pgh) on around October 1st, but am not sure where to park my car in Boston for 4 days (not in Logan airport parking) ... although it would be very nice to see you in Pittsburgh then too. I had thought to park my car on or near Oakland Road near the Robbs, having seen on Google Street View a car parked on a 'no-outlet' street near them, with no parking signs in Google Maps, but this seems unfeasible ... 

Leaving the car in the Elm street garage in New Bedford and taking a taxi from New Bedford is new option too, and I just noticed the new Peter Pan bus line from New Bedford to Boston departs NB at 4:25 pm and gets to Boston 3 hours later at 7:23 pm ... a possibility!   

Thanks so so much for your email here, Ma! 

Love, Scott





& Re ... 

Dear John, Ed, Ma, Sid, 

Greetings. How are you? I hope this email finds you well, and happy on what's a bright sunny day where I am. 

It's a new dynamic, not communicating with my mother very much, and not talking often at all in recent weeks - and Oedipally, or even 'double Oedipally' somehow ... and while this could allow me in new ways to meet a life partner, potentially in the SF Bay Area, for example, I'm appreciative of my wonderful mother in many many ways, and miss our communicating often. (John, where do you head with the Lacanian Oedipus complex, riffing-wise or brainstorming-wise psychoanalytically?:) And could the Desiderata be read as a response to this concept or tool in psychiatry - https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html ?

Planning-wise, am very glad Ed called me on F 8/25/23 on Cuttyhunk to suggest flying out to the SF Bay Area, and with the further idea to plan to move the WUAS Academic Medical Center back to the the Bay Area, and possibly to 670 Ridgecrest Rd., Canyon, 94516

In this time of uncertainty and limbo - of not knowing - whether, for example, 670 Ridgecrest Rd., Canyon, 94516 will be newly safe and open (even with state of CA and US federal law working together and with Kaiser Permanente ) ... my mother's suggestion in a recent email to rent a place in Pittsburgh seems deeply misguided, planing-wise ... 

Ma, might we talk today or tomorrow please? 
As a conscientious objector ... which I explore further here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/09/white-variety-orchid-gm-national-flower.html - 
am exploring coming to Pittsburgh on Thursday 9/21/23 ... and possibly to go to the Shady Side Academy Homecoming on Friday & Saturday ... and potentially for MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch Board collaborations. 

Ed, as you know, I've scheduled a flight from Pittsburgh PA to the SF Bay Area on Sunday 10/1/23 ... and while I'm hypothesizing that you don't know yet if 670 Ridgecrest Rd., Canyon, 94516 will be newly safe and open ... am very glad that you called me on Cuttyhunk on 8/25/23 with the ideas you shared. 

Am not sure where I'm going to be living in these intervening weeks in September and October,, but am hoping I can communicate with my mother about some of these questions soon, and re possibly returning to Cuttyhunk from Pgh after I return from the SF Bay Area on October 4, so possibly to stay on Cuttyhunk from October 7 - October 23, and then begin moving my things with a mover, and then driving myself from Pgh to the SF Bay Area from around 10/23-11/1/23.

Thoughts, questions, ideas, suggestions?

Thanks, abolitionally, Friendly regards, best wishes, 
Scott

Dear Ma (Janie), John, Ed, Pin, Charles,

Planning-wise ...

this asylum journey on the eastern seaboard is long but I am optimistic that my flight to the SF Bay Area on Sunday 10/1/23 will open the way to move back into a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon Ca 94516 ❤️, abolitionally, love, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Canyon?m=0


Ed, am grateful for your call on F 8/25/23 ... and looking forward to seeing you on around 10/1/23 in the SF Bay Area potentially

Scott,

Before I left Cuttyhunk this summer, I promised the Archers the use of our golf cart for a family wedding the weekend of Sept. 23.  We left them a key under the house for that purpose.  Please be sure the key we left them is there for their use.

Also, if you are flying out of Pittsburgh on Oct. 1, you may need to book a motel if you get here before the day of your flight.  (I would be happy to meet with you for a meal or a walk before you fly out, if you would like.)
Love, Ma

David Thurston, and who's Bullseye 16' sailboat on land is that near the Cuttyhunk ferry dock? - Scott


Scott - 

Hi David, greetings from Cuttyhunk. How long do you think it would take to sail a Bullseye sailboat with a little anchor from here to the old Cuttyhunk  Alert dock towing a dinghy on a nice 12 knot wind from SW day ... And how long for the return tacking into the wind pretty much? Do you know who owns the 'Cold Smoke' Bullseye now out of the water near the Cuttyhunk ferry dock by any chance? And do you also know of a Bullseye available on Cuttyhunk possibly for sale even? Cheers, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/sailing?m=0 ... am seeking to sail over to visit New Bedford NEAR ELM street garage and get groceries even.:) -Scott





David - 


Hey Scott,

Nice you are still out there. I think that is Nick Porter's bullseye. I don't know of any sailboats for sale. Good luck on your adventures!

-David 




Scott - 

Thanks for your message and the Nick Porter's Bullseye information, David! Just created the following new email  - Cuttyhunk island MA exchange Google group - 

https://groups.google.com/a/worlduniversityandschool.org/g/cuttyhunk-island-ma-exchange

in these regards. Cuttyhunk is beautiful and gets cooler by the day - my next 6th book 'Soc, Info Tech & the Global Univ" is coming along. Flying to the Bay Area on Sun 10/1/23 to explore planning to move the WUaS Academic Medical Center /WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute forward into a newly safe Canyon 94516 or similar, adventures-wise.

How is your tutoring going this autumn, (and your seeking a possible life partner too?)  Cheers, Scott ( http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/sailing?m=0 )




Scott - 

David, one reason to move back into a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon 94516, where you visited me ... is to grow an abolition movement to protect people & re Canyon  criminals for ex, federal & state law, & similar, and re WUaS seeking to code for all 7.9 billion people -  https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University ... It seems like Nick Porter's Bullseye if I could possibly borrow it (re CYC membership too) put it back in the Water etc - could open ways with Nick in growing free MIT OCW- centric wiki World Univ & Sch in the Middle East even and re peace making there too ... but it's a very turbulent area, with its religions' history esp ... and I could adventure to the mainland from Cuttyhunk too ... Yet Friendly-led or -informed WUaS could help with peace making in the Middle East potentially and dramatically possibly too ... and in collaboration with Nick  .

. Thanks for the info that the Bullseye may be Nick's, Cheers, abolition-ally, regards, Scott
