Dear GENI
Friend,
The new
year for GENI has started with a bang. . . very credible
technical exposure, strong financial commitments,
and a travel schedule that would make anyone dizzy.
As mentioned
in last month's report, the Mechanical
Engineering magazine of the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, (January 1994) has a major feature
about interconnecting electrical systems around the
world. The lead sentence acknowledges Buckminster
Fuller as the source of this discussion in 1969. What's
very important about this piece is that GENI is not
mentioned. There are interviews with experts that
we suggested they contact, and the entire story deals
with this technology. Yet, not giving GENI credit
means that the discussion and debate has now moved
far beyond our own limitations, and is becoming incorporated
by the industry!
With a
commitment from Hong Kong, our Campaign
to Fund the Vision of GENI has just hit the $250,000
mark! This is outstanding in that we can fully launch
both the Computer
Simulation Model and the Documentary/Film
immediately. Your regular contributions have made
this possible.
In this
first quarter, GENI has major presentations at the
Society for Computer Simulation, the Power Engineering
Society of the Institute for Electrical and Electronic
Engineers, and the world conference of the Society
for International Development. The opportunity to
share our work before these highly respected organizations
says volumes about the acceptance GENI is now receiving.
Thank you
for making this possible.
Sincerely,
Peter Meisen
Executive
Director
