And I am "unemployable"... on several dimensions.<br>
<p>But I *am* interested in the tech ecology of the region and in
this age of COVID imagine *some* people who previously strongly
preferred the in-person networking of living in urban
concentrations might well return to their roots.. And there are
many more options for telework (to solve the common two-body
problem). <br>
</p>
<p>We already have enough draws for (usually wealthy) people to move
here from the coasts or TX and distort the demographic and
politic, so I'm not excited about accidentally becoming more of a
*mecca* for high tech, but good jobs for folks with roots here is
always welcome. And FriAM might even attract some younger blood
if there is a larger pool? I don't know our general demographic,
but I'd say an age-indexed frequency weighted average is probably
near or above my 63. Our "youngsters" here are for the most part
in their 50s? At least Cody provides some sqew away from that!<br>
</p>
<p>I'm also interested in the possibility that perspectives such as
are presented in books like <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/110248.Blackfoot_Physics">Blackfoot
Physics</a> might have some traction, and the long-shot chance
that one of my young Tewa neighbors, for example, might grow up
and revolutionize this domain through hybridization of their own
cosmological perspectives and those that lead to our current
quantum technology. <br>

<p>Glen dismisses many things as "quantum woo" and I myself find
that a great deal of the "newage" (rhymes with sewage) perspective
(and whatever passes for neo-newage) is
quantum/laser/hologram/crystal/vibration-woo, but have a hard time
dismissing it all out of hand (as does Glen I suspect).</p>
