Lessons for Mankind?

Here I am again, looking for clues  about the education of early mankind! If you're like me and sit in a cave  long enough, you begin to wonder about the basics of  the  Life experience. We all know that the printing press, computers,  the internet and smart phones did not always exist or did they ?How was knowledge,  problem-solving ,rules of conduct, social courtesies, family connectedness  and basic customs conveyed to early man? I suspect  that some were conveyed through observation and interaction between  early man and lower animals. One such  well-studied  subject is the characteristics of elephant communal  life.We, modern and 'civilized humanity' can still learn many lessons from the past and today's  elephant community. All it takes is a little bit of study and observation. Read about the elephants at the following link and tell me if you agree !

A White House Ten Code For Comey ?

What do the feds do and how do you talk to 'em ? In search of a clue to the  correct answer to that question,I  perused a pseudo-digital archive of   TV character, Sgt. Joe Friday, of the Dragnet  fame.
Being somewhat of a character myself, I  was intrigued by  the following script quote,

"Dragnet: The Big Cast (#1.5)" (1952)
Sgt. Joe Friday: This is the city. Every 24 hours a little bit of everything happens. Two million people make a lot of history in one day. They write it all down and file it away. Some of it's important, some of it isn't. Business, industry, government - you buy a three-cent stamp or an oil well - they keep records of it. Progress, money, success... and failure. A complete history of every day; some of it's public, some personal. It's all written down. In my job we catalog trouble. I'm a cop.

That last sentence above  says it all !   'Unit 1, how do you read ? What's your location ? Return to station ! Over and  out ! '

Read the scripts for yourself. It makes for interesting reading ...
