Half of Pratt has gotten into their vehicles and are cruising up and down Main Street honking horns and shouting. Everyone on Main Street is out on their porches cheering the drivers on (every house on Main Street, including mine, has a front porch). Fire engines have gone by blaring their sirens. People are out with signs and balloons and playing music. American flags are being displayed on cars and on peoples' houses.
This all came about because students were on Spring break when the schools shut down, and the teachers never got the chance to say goodbye. This is the teachers' way of letting all their students know that they care about them. Also, the Senior Center is closed, and Pratt's seniors want everyone to know that they're all still together in spirit. All in all, it's a general display of solidarity in the face of CV-19, signaling that we are all in this together and that we've got each others' backs.

One thing this shows is how interconnected we are as one human race and how much each of us depends on the collective labor of working people. Too bad the politicians all represent one faction or another of the corporate ruling class. But as Pratt Kansas and numerous other similar spot around the globe show, we are all in this together and can only win together.
You have a right to feel proud of your town.
Here's a video in tribute to all the Pratt Kansas locations around the globe.

I agree gotta love small town USA. I am from a small rural town in PA. My daughter told me about in one of our neighboring towns, the local cop has let the community know if any of their kids have a birthday and can't have a party to let him know. He would bring over his vehicle and fire trucks and run the sirens for them during the lock down.
When our local high school teams win a championship in sports, they come home and the firetrucks are waiting and they ride on top of the firetrucks and the community comes out and cheers for them.

Wonderful demonstrations of solidarity and togetherness. The virus is no respecter of country or race. The more we show our love and help to all, the more heart and concerted effort to get rid of the little blighter that's changing our world forever, one way or the other.
The politicians in America are showing their true colours with their dithering and pointing fingers at each other. Their selfish ways are laid bare for all to see. The People are suffering and dying while they scrap among themselves. Do they not know that this Thing that has befallen the human race is beyond any political boundaries ?
It is the People that voted the Ivory Tower dwellers into their places of power, but it will be the People who are compelled and driven by a common purpose to mobilize their efforts at the Front End where it counts, despite the machinations, bickering and outright obstructive behaviour of those we should trust to do all the right things, but fail miserably in the People's Hour Of Need.
This is World War III. Not some regional threat that can be easily confined. CoVid 19 can be compared to other diseases that afflict us all, numerically, but those ascending numbers are not finished yet by any means. Those in High Places that feel safe and remote from danger while their meandering decisions affect billions around the planet, including censorship of the true facts, are only trying to buy time for themselves, hoping that the System that existed yesterday will continue tomorrow.
One day they stand a good chance of being among those who are no longer with us, and who should be remembered and honoured after all is done, if ever that day arrives, in the same manner as we remember and honour our war dead, and those still with us who strove so resolutely in the trenches to bring relief and comfort to those afflicted by this global enemy of Mankind.

oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199267972.001.0001/acprof-9780199267972Richard Dawkins was Debunked by E.O. Wilson and Colonial Organisms: But, in fact, genomes are replicators as much as genes academic.oup.com/bioscience/article/62/11/987/263161 here is a detailed overview of the critique of E.O. Wilson "Dawkins (2012) repeated an argument that he first developed in The Selfish Gene (1976): Genes are the only replicators....But, in fact, genomes are replicators as much as genes are, and the phenotypes that genomes control include metazoan individuals and social groups, such as E. O. Wilson's eusocial colonies and human societies." So Dawkins has been debunked. Someone online comments: My take is that eusocial colonies are hardwired to behave in certain patterns, and evolution is relative to the whole colony; whereas human social behaviour is not that rigid, and the individual can deviate from the collective norm to the extent that they can be destroyed, or destroy themselves. Too late now though! maybe read Brewster Kneen's book, "Invisible Giant." A biology professor at University of Minnesota, Phil Regal, returned back to Canada - he told me that the big corporations had completely corrupted the biology department. With Dawkins' "selfish gene" lie came Reagan's 100% tax deductible "gifts" to Universities by corporations. Lawrence Soley's book "Leasing the Ivory Tower" gives details - he was also a Minnesota prof. but got fired for publishing that book. So I wouldn't exactly trust the "mainstream" science view of population biology considering modern industrial civilization has created a mass extinction crisis as biological "annhilation. Biological annihilation via the ongoing sixth mass extinction signaled by vertebrate population losses and declines www.pnas.org/content/114/30/E6089 and Vertebrates on the brink as indicators of biological annihilation ...www.pnas.org › content Jun 1, 2020 - G. Ceballos,; P. R. Ehrlich,; R. Dirzo. , Biological annihilation via the ongoing sixth mass extinction signaled by vertebrate population losses and ... Professor David F. Noble's book "The Religion of Technology" - he was at MIT but got fired for political reasons so he went back to Canada. So science is not such an innocent worldview. So have you read the book "Ecological Imperialism" by professor Alfred Crosby? Sure humans maybe individualistically creative but 500 years of Western genocide is what Dr. Vandana Shiva calls "Monocultures of the Mind" - check out her book by that title. You do know that white skin is from Wheat monocultural farming lacking vitamin D.... So biologist Dr. Michael Soule pointed out in the 1970s that evolution for large mammals had ended already due to lack of habitat.... I suppose you need to maintain some kind of science job? Dawkins is a brown-no$er for corporate junk science. It was the Neo-Con Revolution - Thatcher and Reagan. Have you read Noam Chomsky's book: "Year 501: The Conquest Continues" - again individual freedom I guess... or try his book "Political Economy of HUman Rights" about how the Dawkins philosophy spread NeoNazi genocide around the world. Very much about individual freedom isn't it? Colonial Organisms - jstor www.jstor.org/stable/2450001?seq=1... www.jstor.org › stableMetazoan individual, has its uses for purposes of classification, but it declares a distinction that has no real existence. If we consider birth in its true relations, ...by C Morris - 1884 Someone comments: Sorry, lost you on the metazoan individual, only familiar with the metazoan group (tissue differentiation). How do you compare a biologically defined group with a social group? I've lost you. So you've never read "Mind and Nature: A necessary unity" by Gregory Bateson? His dad coined the word "genetics." So just 7000 generations ago all humans on Earth were direct cousins due to the biological bottleneck after the Mt. Toba Supervolcano. We can use science to reverse engineer our brainwashed modern left brain dominant existance. The psychiatrist Iain McGilChrist has now devoted his career to teaching how right brain dominant is better than left brain dominant. The key secret is the right brain vagus nerve is connected to the left side of the brain but not vice versa!! So with right brain dominance we can connect to the frequency of spirit light inside our bodies and then through meditation we can empty out the energy blockages of matter - turning them back into light and reversing the phase back to the Emptiness, our pure sound ether that is superluminal and inherently can not be seen - it is just a pure time-frequency energy information.

“Michael Perrone asks me a question Hi Michael: Thanks for the question. That logic vid that ends stating it's an example of Godel's Incompleteness Theorem is precisely the focus of Roger Penrose's emphasis that a calculation is not consciousness. There's two ways of interpreting Godel's Incompleteness Theorem - one is that math is inherently inconsistent or the other is that math is incomplete. The later is what most scientists favor with the Platonic view that technology will continue to disprove hypotheses based on the "proof by contradiction" model of science. Thus with more technological precision therefore a more accurate view of reality arises. Math Professor Luigi Borzacchini points out that this inherent paradox of mathematics (really to do with the discrete and continuous) leads to what he titled his book, "Plato's Computer." The book is in Italian but there's some summary of it - the idea being that mathematics is the structural drive of science but it was based on a "deep pre-established disharmony" (Borzacchini) as the "guiding evoltive principle" of science. This is what is also dubbed by another research group, "the music logarithmic spiral" in an attempt to solve this logical paradox. So Penrose is arguing that ONLY consciousness unifies relativity and quantum physics but not consciousness in the normal sense defined by perceptions or thinking. Rather "protoconsciousness" is this nonlocal process of noncommutativity as "fundamental time" with the future and past overlapping. The typical physicist (Viktor Toth answering on Quora website is a good example) will argue that the beginning of the Universe can not be defined since it's an "open set" and therefore the mathematics, as per Godel, will always be "incomplete" since reality is defined by the geometric symmetric continuum (this is the unstated Platonic norm of modern Western science). In other words the geometric continuum arises out of an argument of symmetry that Plato claimed was inherent and thus self-evident. His argument was spurious and he was relying on the wrong music theory - secretly - from Archytas and Philolaus. As Luigi Borzacchini points out in his 2007 published article (that he first presented in 1999 on an academic math forum, and I discovered it in 2001) - the secret music origin of the geometric continuum is due to the "negative judgement paradox." So in music theory the "proof" of infinity as this "protoconsciousness" was a NEGATIVE proof and thus required silence as logical inference of the Self - as Socrates taught and practiced. Well Socrates was a kind of vanishing mediator in the creation of Plato - such that the irrational "Alogon" geometry was self-evident. So the symmetric "twoness" exists in the Platonic Realm with time as a static symmetric "image" of eternity. So there is a book called "From Pythagoras to Einstein" demonstrating how relativity is really just an extension of this logic and so time is converted to a symmetric spatial rest frame. The term "protoconsciousness" as Penrose uses is coined or emphasized by Bernard 'd Espagnat. His book "Veiled Reality" is one of the best books on quantum mechanics - and it won some award also. So basically 'd Espagnat is arguing we can logically infer from the Double Slit experiment, etc. that there is this nonlocal realm of reality that is secretly guiding matter from the future. Essentially it is the de Broglie-Bohm model that uses this protoconsciousness term but Professor Basil J. Hiley just calls it "active information." So normally we think of "primitive causality" as defined or limited to the "speed of light" but through the double slit experiment we witness a superluminal radiance (that recently was also confirmed in our own microtubules for quantum consciousness!). The microtubules are resonated as the strongest force or conductance at the ultrasound frequency. It turns out in Tinnitus research it's proven the highest sound we can listen to externally then resonates the brain internally as ultrasound. Ultrasound is a key to both mechanical transformation and electromagnetic transduction via the piezoelectric effect. The most common protein in our body, collagen, is piezoelectric. So this was the secret to the ancient nonwestern meditation since by LISTENING or logical inference it is proven that musicians can hear up to ten times FASTER than "time-frequency uncertainty" or Fourier Uncertainty. In other words time is no longer limited to being a "linear operator" as in standard quantum physics and in relativity. Fourier Uncertainty arises OUT of noncommutativity as nonlocality. So Penrose points out that in fact Time is not just cubic but it is also noncommutative and this is what he calls Fundamental Time - a term from Lee Smolin who first studied quantum physics from my same physics Professor Herbert J. Bernstein. If you look up "Eddie Oshins" who coined "quantum psychology" as a physicist working at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center then you discover Oshins solving these "double bind" paradoxes "Cretin's Liar paradox, etc." of Western logic and set theory. Oshins was building off Gregory Bateson's attempt to solve the same Bertrand Russell "error of logical types." I read Bateson's book "Mind and Nature: A necessary unity" on my own in my first year of college - Bateson is struggling in that book. Oshins basically states the answer is "Neither A nor Not-A." (again the silence as logical inference). Ironically Edgar Allan Poe realized this same truth of logical inference as the basis for creating the modern mystery novel that relies on reversing the future as a noncommutativity of meaning). Oshins was trying to teach noncommutativity to Karl Pribram (who made his holographic brain model famous). Look up Oshin's paper, (About Models and Muddles, Part I: Why Brown’s Laws of Form and Pribram’s “Hologram Hypothesis” are NOT Relevant to Quantum Physics and Quantum Psychology) - for details. I give the Oshins link on my blog www.quantumpsychology.com/pdf/Models-and-Muddles-Part-I.pdf in case his old website gives you problems. He passed on early. So for example in Richard Feynman's diagrams the photon has both a future and past at the same time and this is necessary to explain the relativistic quantum physics. But Professor Jean Bricmont has pointed out that Bell's Inequality disproved Quantum Field Theory that still assumes a symmetric rest frame for measurement. The "weak measurements" by Yakir Aharonov's group, along with the Aharonov-Bohm Effect and even the neutron spin experiments (that were first proposed by my own professor in 1967 along with Leonard Susskind and Yakir Aharonov) have proven, as Professor Basil J. Hiley explains, this noncommutative nonlocal process of the future overlapping with the past. Professor Hiley is continuing these experiments of this newly discovered force of the quantum potential. Hiley is also building off Alain Connes' noncommutative lecture to physicists. Feynman was wrong to dismiss this quantum potential nonlocality into a type of kinetic energy based on the symmetric rest frame of the calculus, as Hiley details! Hiley proves that Feynman's math was wrong. And so this secret newly discovered force (from the future) was covered up or lost due to the wrong mathematics! Whether this force can be harnessed for technology - I don't know. I do know that this force is also what Penrose calls the "gravitational potential" as the true dark energy and it originates from noncommutative quantum negative entropy and so it is inherent to life itself from protoconsciousness (Penrose is citing Schroedinger's 1945 book, "What is Life?". The Hameroff-Penrose model goes into more details on how this evolved into complex life out of this inherent noncommutativity. Hameroff himself just acknowledges this as "negative resonance" from Penrose but Hameroff doesn't understand it is actually noncommutativity! Hameroff does emphasize it is not an "integration" as "calculation" but rather protoconsciousness is literally music. I have delved into the noncommutative music math details in my academia articles and books. See for example "Strange Vibrations" by drew hempel The concept of noncommutativity is still barely recognized in Western science since as Alain Connes points out most scientists consider noncommutativity to be "strange" and a "nuisance." Most physicists if they do recognize noncommutativity consider it be an "extension" of Riemannian relativistic geometry. But in fact if people study Alain Connes' "Music of Shapes" lecture it's quite clear the noncommutativity was there already in the nonwestern Pythagorean music as an applied body-mind transformation meditation. Eddie Oshins figured this out also since he realized the secret of Neigong or internal martial arts as alchemy is noncommutativity. And so because math was founded on the wrong music theory then humans developed very precise technology that is not accurate to the foundation of reality: Hence our current ecological crisis due to the entropy of matter being the opposite the entropy of gravity as Roger Penrose explains.” |

Is this about 432hz vs 440hz?
What about 444hz, huh? Yeah, what about that?
