There is stasis in many areas of scientific enquiry: climate change, space exploration, medical breakthroughs, basic theoretical physics, as in String Theory, TOEs (Theories of Everything), cosmology, etc.
There is promise with AI, but cautions abound. It doesn't help that current Government policies attack and demean the scientific establishment, withholding funding for research. The class will interactively explore these dilemmas, avoiding politics, and hopefully seeking answers.

More money is spent, wasted, and often illegally used seeking pain mitigation. When everyday OTC drugs fail, sufferers move dangerously on to opioids:
Fentanyl, oxycodone, schedule IIIs like ketamine, and illegal substances are obtained at great risk. Even under medical supervision, such actions are at the very least expensive, and subject to dead-end addictions, overdose suicide. Sodium ion channel blocking and other ion channels of interest offer the cutting edge in research.
The class will explore these areas, the nature of pain, types of addiction, and entertain any narratives the group has to offer.

Instructor: Bert Parks
Bert owned the oldest trailer park in Atlanta for 18 years, from 1984 to 2002, in a high-crime area of the city. These stories reveal the fierce struggle of marginalized people from all walks of life to survive in a dysfunctional world that became both a dumping ground for social and criminal problems and a refuge for many decent, warm, and admirable individuals. Many of these true stories are shocking and sad, yet often humorous. Bert’s struggle to survive the overwhelming challenges of this business—often dangerous and emotionally exhausting—considering how green, naïve, ignorant, and unprepared he was, is a story in itself.
