040901 - Millie received a letter from her grandaughter, Amy...
040902 -
040903 -    1.  I decided to type you a letter seeing as how I can type faster
040904 -        than I can print.  I need most of my time these days; the
040905 -        limited spare time I get comes unexpectedly and is often very
040906 -        short.  Lets see I have started my new club volleyball season
040907 -        and I'm practicing 5 times a week.  It is not that hard
040908 -        physically, just difficult mentally because they are teaching
040909 -        me new ways to play and I can get frustrated, but I don't show
040910 -        it.  I just get frustrated, but I'm trying and giving it my all
040911 -        and I'm improving.
040912 -
040913 -            [On 060109 submitted draft response for Millie to
040914 -            consider. ref SDS 2 0001
040916 -         ..
040917 -    2.  On top of that I'm working four days a week.  I really like my
040918 -        job.  It is a lot of fun.  Oh, we are starting our senior
040919 -        projects soon and I think I'm going to do it on Controlled
040920 -        substances, (in veterinary hospital), mostly the biological
040921 -        aspect of them.  What does the drug do to the cell in order to
040922 -        invoke a change?  I am excited, it will be challenging but I am
040923 -        eager to learn about it.   Did you have to do a senior project?
040924 -        If so, what did you do it on?
040926 -  ..
040927 - Controlled substances presents a fascinating and critical inquiry on
040928 - the power and opportunity to change behavior by changing the chemical
040929 - balance of a cell.
040931 -  ..
040932 - Another school project Amy might consider is transformation from
040933 - information to a culture of knowledge, summarized at the end of NWO.

040939 -    3.  School is going good.  I find it a little time consuming and
040940 -        pointless these days because I know I could do what thy ask at
040941 -        home, faster, but there is not much I can do about it.  I am
040942 -        not sure if I told you about the school I am applying to so I
040943 -        applied to five UC, UCLA, UCSD, Berkely, UC Irvine, and one
040944 -        state school, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.  I have not received
040945 -        any letters yet, I should start getting some about March maybe,
040946 -        I am really not sure when and I still don't know where I want
040947 -        to go.  I just hope I get in somewhere.
040949 -  ..
040950 - Amy has a job, she is active in sports, and has school work.  We have
040951 - to hope she does not over extend, and work herself into ill health, as
040952 - happened with Tesla, reported in NWO. ref OF 14 GT5L

040957 -    4.  Have you ever read the book "1984" by George Orwell?  I am
040958 -        reading it now and I find it interesting.  It is about the
040959 -        future in the eyes of the past.  About the government's contorl
040960 -        over everything, including your daily life.  If you like that
040961 -        kind of stuff I would recomment it.  Have you read any good
040962 -        books lately.

040970 - real name was Eric Blair.  Orwell's aspirations and political bias for

040976 - Orwell preceeded 1984 with his book "Animal Farm."   Orwell wrote 1984
040977 - while suffering from tuberculosis, including being in and out of
040978 - hospitals.  He finished writing in December 1948, and the book was
040979 - published the following year in June 1949.  However, Orwell was
040980 - hospitalized shortly after completing the writing, and was never
040981 - discharged.  He died on January 21, 1950 at age 46, without knowing
040982 - the world acclaim for his work, including to the present day.  Jackie
040983 - Jura summarizes 1984 on her website...
040984 -
040985 -            In "1984" George Orwell describes how a hierarchical world
040986 -            tyranny is set up, how it stays in power, how it treats its
040987 -            people, and what life is like living under such a system.
040988 -            "1984" is in fact a coded blueprint for world tyranny,
040989 -            laying bare its structure and exposing its components.
040991 -             ..
040992 -            Orwell wrote "1984" for us, the future, in the hope we
040993 -            would recognize the signs and symptoms of tyrannical world
040994 -            government and prevent its establishment in our world.
040996 -  ..
040997 - Orwell generally combines two themes:  the growth of technology, and
040998 - the growth of intrusive government, which were emerging in the late
040999 - 1940s with the use of computers, and large scale governments needed to
041000 - fight a world war, commonly called bureaucracy.  This has resonance
041001 - today in resistance against government laws regulating abortion, and
041002 - against government spying to protect against terrorism, generally
041003 - summarized as a right of privacy.

041008 -    5.  Have you seen the "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants"?  It is a
041009 -        good movie.  It is definitely a girl's movie but it is very
041010 -        interesting and heart warming.  Four teenage friends are
041011 -        separated for the first time and a pair of pants "keeps" them
041012 -        together.  You learn about their personalities and adventures.
041013 -        It's good you should see it.
041015 -  ..
041016 - Millie has seen this movie, and so can comment.
