After our whole group session broke for the evening, folks started to work at investigating the map, and began to add connections to help make sense of the various bits.
We headed to Hocking Hills this past weekend, for what has become our annual unplug and recharge weekend.
This needs no comment, but i have a couple of things that go with it.
STORY ONE-
I just got an exciting letter (email) from Virginia.
The mural she just painted with Jesse had a social comment over to the side... a TV set with the legend on the screen.:
“UNPLUG TO ENLIGHTEN”.
I sent them this.:
“
I just noticed the TV thing in the mural.
I’ve got a goodie for you about that.:
PEOPLE WHO HATE SCIENCE WATCH ALOT OF TV.
Little do they know that the hardest science (maybe) is physics...
... and the hardest kind of physics is quantum physics.
The scientists don’t really understand it but the math from it is so precise... to nine decimal points....that things come out of quantum physics that they didn’t think could happen.... like
.......................................TELEVISION. !!!!..............

STORY TWO-
I went to Stacey and Sara’s birthday party.
As i was leaving, i came across this discussion, outside.:
“
I was heading out ( and stopping at the food table ) and encountered a group of people talking about the present political situation. I think they indicated that the GOP were asking for a leader like this.
I said, “It started with Reagan, i think.”
Somebody said, “It started with AGRICULTURE. We got arrogant after that.”
... which prompted me to finish with.:
HUNTING AND GATHERING......... THOSE WERE THE DAYS.
“
I sent this to Stacey and got a surprise answer.:
“
jared diamond has made that argument. he said hunter gatherer societies were more egalitarian. it is an article i have my students read every year.

- i don’t know if GPS comes from Quantum Physics but it IS highly dependent on Einstein’s work that explained that TIME is mushy. The clocks in space run at a different rate from the clocks on the ground. If adjustments were not made for this, GPS would be miles off.

In the present day, the GOP would never have voted for the likes of Ronald Reagan or Richard Nixon, in spite of all the trouble they stirred up.
They both had done unthinkable liberal things, as well.:
Reason backed off and raised taxes.!
Nixon started the EPA.!
What they needed now was the pure BS monster.
HIS clepto-lies are like music to their ears.

Following my sunrise morning photo solo paddle, and after a brief on-shore recuperation (kneeling in a canoe after a while takes its toll on your ankles), I ventured out onto the lake again, this time in the company of Tom Fullerton. In addition to enjoying the early morning lake and the ducks, we had a great conversation, and had a chance to share some wonderful stories.
Tom's comments during the #Unplugd closing circle were that much more meaningful as a result of this paddle on Saturday morning.
