Project status and other issues

Just some points to cover... Big Red is officially off the project. An action he has recently taken with respect to a personal matter between us, has proven that he can not be trusted in any way on the Remote Sensing project - or in any other way for that matter. All words he has said, whether they were voiced or in other formats have all been lies - and his actions thus far, all deceptions. Due to the very serious nature of the project - I cannot trust him in any way or on any matter - EVER. As Trump would say - Big Red, YOU'RE FIRED! You WERE the weakest link! You have disgraced and dishonored yourself and your professors and others by your choices and actions and makes one wonder about you apparent upbringing. As the REM song asks: What's the frequency Kenneth? Apparently, you chose as low as you could go.

My other helper is still on board and is willing to keep at it. I got a message from his big brother recently about it. I will attempt to send the right stuff in your direction, my old friend - stay tuned for further developments.

I have been reading American Prometheus lately - the biography of J Robert Oppenheimer. It is very interesting and gives quite a great deal of insight into his life and career - personal and professional. Surprisingly, he reminds me of someone I know very well - striking similarities, in fact. Almost spooky!

As far as my research projects are concerned: I intend to start making some serious headway on the Deccans project. The really irksome matter, as someone pointed out on a previous post - we are unable to actually do any fieldwork onsite at the Deccan Traps. This is quite unfortunate since it holds many clues to that puzzle. Especially important is the seriously altered Moho layer underlying that volcanic province. Maybe once the other computing project is finished, we can develop a means to detect various features like faults, oil and gas reserves, and other important resources. This could also be helpful to anthropologists and archaeologists to find old burial grounds, mass graves, and other large manmade objects. Mapping the ocean floor more extensively would be helpful as well.

A thought on AIDS research: I am wondering if researchers have looked into the cat kingdom for potential answers since both big cats in the wild and our domestic cats are prone to feline AIDS. There could be a potential solution to this problem down that avenue. It doesn't hurt to look into it. Remember how Penicillin was originally found. It may be something in the genes in both humans and cats that gives the virus an advantage. Have we even done a genome on HIV and AIDS yet? I certainly hope so.

Until my next post... Onward and Upward!!!

Endgame

The remote sensing invention will still happen, because I told my friend I would help it come into reality. I say what I mean and I mean what I say - 100% of the time - at least for the most part. Actually, the reality of the situation is that I do believe I have found a couple great guys who are tech savvy enough to take on the job. One is a very old and dear friend of mine. Hi there Tom. Take good care of your mum - she's a great lady - and like a second mum to me.

And the other is the man I love more than anything else in the Universe and can not imagine living my life without him. Actually he's the man I will marry - hopefully very very soon. Actually, the sooner the better. Hey there Big Red! Love ya baby! How long do you expect me to wait around? I was starting to worry - but you're my one and only. My old man! Wink wink! Besides, do you or do you not want to be happy and successful? I am sure your parents and the rest of your family would want that. I cannot imagine a parent who would wish their son or daughter anything less than this.

Yes I have edited this post - big time. The original was necessary - but I recover fast - down but not out for too long. Can't be doing that. ...Now where was I...oh yeah...

Don't know what to do about paleoclimatology class. Thanks to an unfortunate series of circumstances, it looks like I might be waiting around awhile to retake it. Such is life!

Until next time - or nextpost... We're going to the chapel and we're goin to get married...goin to the chapel of love.
