am good so far
had a very productive two days with my research assistant Amy Jacobson in New Jersey
we now have 60+ papers on honour killings in Jersey and another 20 in Jamaica
especially important areas are Pakistan, Turkey (Kurds), Saudi Arabia and India
lots of variation in mating system, form of homicide, reasons given, frequency of multiple victims and/or
multiple perpetrators, degree of retribution and so on
am working out the logical details on inheritance—females seem invariably to count for 1/2 of what a male does
in Islam
parallel-cousin marriages-father's brother—occur in the desserts of Saudi Arabia—it radiated out from there
with Islam—such systems are selected in competition with each other, as in Iraq—two paternal lineages bind
against others similarly binding
deserts in other primates are often associated with more intense male-male between group fighting, e.g.
hamadryas vs regular baboons—that we were doing more than riding the camels in the dessert is suggested by
the fact that a lactose-tolerant gene arose in that area related to the lactose of camels, so we were apparently
milking our camels !
i believe you have heard of the Enhanced Learning Foundation; it got me to where i am today on this subject,
and perhaps it may wish to go further
i intend to do a year of intense work and then summarise. i was never mentally as fast as you and i am certainly
not getting faster with age (76 this February) but i do have a good eye for fundamental logic and i believe this
will be the last serious project in my life--i will not let go until i have wrapped this whole thing up, especially
with the help of Amy, who is now putting together a master Excel file on all this
i plan a book on all of this of course, it will be co-authored by Dr Jacobson
if the ELF wanted a formal proposal, i am happy to do so
BTW resistance already making itself known—Texas A&M biology showed interest in hiring me but faculty
were critical of my honour killing work—particularly (as usual) my claim that victims were often beautiful—
where was my "metric" for beauty?—without which i was not allowed to speculate--and wasn't i disrespecting
the dead by saying they were often beautiful while still alive !!
i have thought through trans-sexuality in humans to my satisfaction—i will get back to you shortly on that
all best
