My Dear Friends,

Africa calls, so I am preparing to travel again. We have a management conference there as well as other important meetings.

The only people with more miles on them are astronauts.

I will not be out of communications, wherever I am. A net satellite phone and data source will attend to that.

My trip is an open return, and if time allows I will go to Oman to visit our brothers there. I am in New York for meetings tomorrow.

Respectfully,
Jim
