Wow. I do have too much time on my hands. Hopefully though I have been able to get some more people to use the local blood banks for donations at One Blood and Life South. Adopt some dogs and cats from our local animal shelters. See some of the movies coming out at our three wonderful Villages' area theaters. Get people thinking about the need to level the playing field in the legal arena by making practical information more accessible for survivors/victims of crimes by needling librarians about the necessity of creating an on-going dialog between survivors/victims' rights groups, lawyers, librarians, the media, and other groups which influence popular opinions and the like-- such as celebrities like athletes, movie stars, TV stars, musicians, comedians, stage actors, politicians, CEOs, advertisers, etc. This is my 224 613 Project which I have been doing since January 1991. It is based on my experiences with the Michelle Mitchell 2-24-1976 murder in Reno, Nevada. This slaying now looks attached to the SF Bay area Gypsy Hill murders of 1976. Michelle Mitchell was the daughter of my then Earl Wooster High School English teacher Barbara Mitchell. I had gone into the Washoe County Library downtown library in Reno, Nevada the weekend of February 28, 1976 to look for practical materials for me and the rest of my fellow remedial English class students to help cope with this murder investigation but found pretty much nothing. I started checking in all kinds of libraries for practical materials for survivors/victims of crimes from then onward while I earned four degrees from five different universities and community colleges. ( UNR, U of MN-Twin Cities, BYU, U of Denver, College of San Mateo) 613 is my number in a stress study on the unemployed at the University of California, San Francisco Health Sciences Campus over 17 weeks in 1992-1993. I have been using these numbers 224 613 Project as identifiers. Ways to communicate with the groups I have tried to pull into this endeavor.

We all have the same amount of time. We just choose to use it differently. We are retired and we get to choose what it is that we want to do. You are fun to "watch". If that's what you want to do, keep at it.

Helpful information very often and some fun to. Keep up the good work.

Thanks. Now if I can just turn this into something that has some real effect. I think I have already but I am just going on gut instinct. If you want to figure out what I mean Google Taltarzac725. Facebook has been just what I have been looking for since 1999 when I started using the Internet. Findlaw did not work out very well for me in 2002-2006.

I will. I am having real fun with the lobster discussion even if it makes me a little nervous when face-to-face with Barefoot and/or her husband Fireboy.

I run into readers of TOTV rather often now who know who I am. And I seem to be having some help from someone with really making the 224 613 Project a big success. But, I have no idea who that is. I have written hundreds of thousands of people since 1999 online and before that via snail mail starting in Spring of 1991. I have a pretty good idea who this is but will not hazard a guess.

Thanks. I hope that some people do more than watch like looking at your local public, medical, academic and/or law library to see what kind of materials they have available which would help survivors/victims of crimes deal with the legal system, the mental heath services available, and other aspects of dealing with these experiences. Law enforcement web-sites should have links to this kind of information as well. I know that people can just Google and find a lot of information for themselves on many topics in this area but it would help with showing the proper respect for survivors/victims of crimes to have a lot of this information highlighted by the library and law enforcement web-sites.

It is mostly a question of empathy of being able to step into the shoes of survivors/victims of crimes.

You would think this is just common sense but if you Google Taltarzac725 you will see some of the problems I have been having since January 1991. In some ways these are extraordinary. I often do not believe these documents unless I look at them.

My story as presented in these documents would make a very good movie but then again I am not sure how many people would believe it as real life is often much stranger than fiction.
