I heard this from someone not too far off who was talking with another man while picking up my mail at the Lynnhaven Postal Station. Have no idea if it was about me and my 224 613 Project however it does seem to be getting more notice than it ever has before because of Facebook.


Probably because of all the work I have being doing on it on Facebook. Facebook has allowed me to reach more people than ever before and make some important contacts. Plus I seem to have been getting some very important help from the friends I have been trying to make since 1991 in assisting me with this work.

However, I just wanted to say that getting involved with something like my 224 613 Project is very easy. Just Google the library and sheriff's office in your former community or here in Lake, Sumter, and Marion Counties and see how easy-- in your opinion--it is to find practical materials for people with mental health problems to find information on support and other things as well as what kind of information they have about survivor/victims of crimes, etc.

I have been at this now 25.75 years and believe that I have made quite a difference fighting for this but there are some librarians and law enforcement who still seem to ignore my and others requests that they get practical and easily accessible information. I have heard Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) often over the years.

You do need information that is easy to get to and useful.

Mental health support systems are critical in communities to prevent people from taking out their inclinations towards violence against themselves or others.

There are many good people in the Villages and I have met some of these in the eleven years I have lived in the Villages. There IS more to life than just golf. I still do not golf so maybe that is my problem. If I felt the lure of the game more, I would want to ignore other aspects of what it is to be a Villager.

Many Villagers I have met will give you the shirt off their back if you ask them.

Remember that these are libraries paid for with your tax dollars for the most part. So they are YOUR libraries. Same with the law enforcement agencies. Community members should be able to have input on how much these are involved with helping survivors/victims of crimes and helping those with mental illnesses.

I am a law librarian by training and inclination which should mean that I try to help people get information not put up roadblocks for them getting this integral part of what should be part of a library and law enforcement's agency role in their communities.

I do use the Lake and Sumter County library systems but it is hard for me to talk about all this in person because of the roots of this 224 613 Project and how traumatic they were for me and for many others. As well as how hard this fight has been at times when I was still a working law librarian or one trying to get a job as a working law librarian. Recall that my connection to all this is personal but it involves some very heavily covered media murders (one on 2-24-1976) in Reno, Nevada and as of 2015 a number in the SF Bay area in 1976. (the Gypsy Hill murders).

And recall that 2-24 is also my actual birthday. I changed the one I list on TOTV because of a successful hacker attack on my AOL account a few years ago. So, get a number of reminders of all this just about every day in some form or another.
