Dear GENI
Friend,
Last month,
you learned of the US-African Energy Minister's Summit
in Tucson. We have just sent a substantial package
on the GENI Initiative to all African Ministers. We'll
be setting up our exhibit — at no cost —
and the US Dept. of Energy has invited us to participate
on the Africa infrastructure development panel! We'll
feature the Summit report next month.
We're into
the final month of 1999. In reviewing the issues and
headlines of the year, I found the challenges remaining
in our world to be numerous, and daunting. I'd like
to share some of these headlines with you — in
hope you'll be grateful for your own life and
inspired to do more in 2000:
Over the
past few months, the momentum for the GENI strategy
quickened around the world. As you can see from the
issues above, we still have a long way beforea
world that works for everyone
. But if the job
was easy — it would already be done. This
vision makes the task all the more worth doing.
We do live in exciting and interesting times.
Happy holidays
to you and your family,
Peter Meisen
President

is here. Numerous people have asked us
what will happen — and the only honest answer
is that no one knows for sure. My recommendation:
prepare as you would for an earthquake, and get your
business records in order. The enclosed
pamphlet offers a good checklist.
