I've continued to agitate, per usual, on behalf of STEM, contra the over-specializers. I think feedback loops groom singularities and I'm one of them, but so are a lot of people.
Calling me a "spin doctor" is quite accurate though. The term usually has derogatory connotations, so I'm not being boastful that much, except to acknowledge I'm pretty good at it. I had good teachers.
The "Happy Camper Brigade" (HCB) as I call it took off for Patrick's place, thence to the coast. They phoned HQS for an update about the detour. They'll be going out of range. I just texted a reminder to turn off cell phone power or the battery will drain. I know Melody has a charger but they won't always be in a place to use that.
Have a great trip Alex, if I don't see you again before you go.
I tried to get another basement involved as back up, which we'd use today, given Lindsey is out of town. We'll see if that works, where food storage is concerned. In the meantime, I'm sure we can handle it (don't pass that back, if you read this in my blog).
Does thinking in nationalistic terms destroy an analysis to the point of unreadability? Not usually. You can still read the things, just they're not very smart. Accounting for nationalism, on the other hand, is something else, and should always be done, if relevant.
I'm reviewing a lot of history these days, and not just through print media by a long shot. Tara is in final count down. Betsey from our Meeting will be visiting her in October.
