[2026-05-15] output | Live Clinic 61 synthesis + file moves

• Created Grok - Live Clinic 61: Opening the Black Box of Learning in closer alignment with GPT style for this brief: clean process diagrams, weak-vs-better contrasts, minimal narrative, full removal of attribution language (“Justin outlines…”, “actually”, etc.), while preserving the neutral black box framing.
• Moved both Live Clinic 44 and Live Clinic 61 source files into local-only source storage to mark them as processed.
