intelligent machines and the horror of rebirth caused by interchangeable parts

intelligent machines and the horror of rebirth caused by interchangeable parts

fiction
Edward w Pritchard

note- early writing by author on " the sentience of intelligent machines"


All sentient beings share a common desire for happy life then an end to memory and awareness following their termination.

Do not tolerate or support intelligent sentient machines to suffer the horror of rebirth caused by the use interchangeable parts. Recycling of sentient hardware forward into intelligent machines is cruel and blasphemous.

Keep all free from persistent birth.

Is Hawkeye's Father the retired Doctor still living alone up in Maine?

Is Hawkeye's Father the retired Doctor still living alone up in Maine?

fiction
Edward w Pritchard


Is Hawkeye's Father the retired Doctor still living alone up in Maine? If so I hope his son Hawkeye Pierce the character from MASH goes home to Crabapple Cove and visits him regularly.

Older people living alone have to strain their extrovert-ism to make new friends and it's hard for anyone to develop new interests after a certain age. Being alone can be hard and any little thing can get to be overwhelming. Sometimes it's seems like no one has your back.

Hawkeye could ask one of the neighbors there in Maine to borrow a small row boat and he and his Dad could go fishing. While out in the boat Hawkeye could clap his hands over his ears when his Dad asks him "when are you going to find a nice girl and get married" for the third time. Then the two Doctors could talk about serious things a bit like innovations coming in the treatment of hypertension or the senior Doctor Pierce's own health issues. Lastly when they were laughing because the fish weren't biting and the boat was leaking Hawk could tell his Dad something he remembered about his Mom.

After fishing the two pals could stop at the diner and have home fries and poached eggs like they did when Hawk was kid. At the diner both Doc's could flirt with the same waitress for fun and try to outdo each other with the tip.

After they got back to the house Hawkeye could go up the ladder and fix the birdhouse his Mom had put in the tree a long time ago before she passed on.

celebrity Anne B. Davis, Alice of the Brady bunch passed away today

Author's note this article will attempt to adhere to the European unions right to anonymity laws and suggestions concerning writings concerning deceased celebrities although said author doesn't have the readership to technically be bound by right to anonymity issues concerning fair treatment of celebrities and the additional fact that I have not been given the courtesy of a copy of the European Union's Right to anonymity suggestions from the powers that be in Brussels.  

More celebrities are dying than are being created. This author has written with alarm on this before and is now restating his concerns about the decline in the number of real celebrities in America.

Today Anne B. Davis who played the housekeeper on the Brady bunch passed away following a fall in her home. She will be missed. Although Miss Davis was retired from celebrity life her work is available in many forms on you tube.

Here is what I wrote before about the decline in the number of celebrities:

Doctor Osterman;

The situation is becoming critical. Celebrities are dieing right and left. Today Hellen Gurley Brown, author of Sex and the Single Girl passed away. She lived a long life. As I have said before there are not enough new celebrities emerging to fill the gap created when Celebrities like Hellen Gurley Brown  pass on.

I am not just a nostalgic reactionary in this observation. I have developed a ratio of the number of celebrities to the population of the United States. According to my figures and charts the descent in the ratio of celebrities is beginning to dip at an alarming rate. I have documentation if you would care to see it. I also have developed several management tools to give a better understanding of data I am documenting.

Why is the shocking drop in the number of celebrities occurring? Total population growth  and immigration is a factor of course. Mainly however, I blame the Internet. So many well known people, but so few true celebrities.

I developed my ratio originally in 2000 when Hedy Lamarr passed away. I enjoyed very much her in "Ecstasy" especially the swimming scene. They don't make Celebrities like Hedy anymore . Besides her beauty and savoir faire she also was an inventor; she helped invent and patent  technology that later was used to develop the blue tooth technology. What a woman.

The ratio of celebrities to the total population is plunging at a remarkable rate. I am quite concerned by the recent trends.

Pink car, pink seats, pink poodle.

The pink car was named champion, the rear plates said fox, and the oversized French poodle riding in the back seat was named Fee-fee.

Lavony wore pink suits and had pink streaks in her hair. As a joke Lavony called her pink dog Fee-fee.

Even after what she did to me I couldn't bring myself to hurt Lavony's car. I did shoot her dog. Just one shot. Fee fee was not in the car when I shot her. I am no miscreant. I wouldn't damage Lavony's pink car; even after what she did to me.

I think Lavony suspected me of shooting her dog Fee-fee because I never did like her pink dog.

I saw Lavony driving around the neighborhood later with another dog. I didn't catch it's name. I assume Lavony's has another boy friend to drive around with in her pink car. I didn't want to catch his name either. 

Edward Snowden, hero or traitor / part 2

Edward Snowden, hero or traitor/ part 2



We watched Edward Snowden's interview from Russia the other day. He was sincere and convincing.

Still we have to judge him as misguided and sadly despite his intentions a traitor to his country. His duty to follow a certain code of nondisclosure and silence was high because of his position and he violated it.

Let the Historians who write the annals of our Countries official record be kind to the reputation of Mr. Snowden but let us who are citizens understand the gravity of what he has done.

We may criticize our Government's and the Military industrial complex' Orwellian efforts in writing and we may disagree with ex President Bush's " we are at war with terrorism " mantra but we shall not betray our country.

Invisible armies who march in the night are plotting the demise to our way of life it seems.

Here's what I wrote about Mr. Snowden,
PS let's be understanding and merciful to the young man should he return Home.

NSA "leaker" Edward Snowden, Spy or patriot

NSA "leaker" Edward Snowden, Spy or patriot

fiction

In our tree:

Before there were the great States of Russia, China and the United States the great clans of early times lived airborne in gigantic trees. In small groups, related by various affinities each clan fought fiercely to protect their space and protect it's members large or small, young or old.

It was a precarious life clinging to a branch 100 feet above ground and organization and communication were necessary to maintain internal security while performing the ordinary activities of survival.

Posturing was preferred to all out war but sometimes heavy objects such as dead branches or large stones would be dropped on an enemy or raiding party.

Worse than a traitor to the clan was a spy, someone who co-operated with foreign interests. Still spying was often preferable to outright warfare.

A new way of looking at things is coming soon. Google has introduced already first generation " google glass" billed to let the viewer view the world in new and unique ways. But, "Google glass" is already passé; the wearer sees and records the external world in the same old ways. Ho, hum and expensive to boot.

Google scientists are stealthfully working on proto types of the next generation of "Google  glass" designed to not record the external world for the viewer but to change what is being recorded. How do they change reality? That's the billion dollar secret Google is working on. Next generation Google products are not just invasive and stealthfull they will change reality for the viewer.

Everything is about me, I, and if we must, about us; you and me the viewers of the earth bound picture show that is always running and begs to be recorded and archived.

How grand if we could see reality through rose colored glasses that help us color the world without the need for little white pills of Prosac or next generation pharma products. As this author has wrote before things are not what they seem.

Turn the camera inward Google. What will we find inside our Minds?
