David,

No apologies needed. Good work. It's not often my eyes well up as a
result of what I saw on a boatbuilding forum....

John O'Neill, speechless.

FBBB --

First, let me apologize in advance for using this forum in this way.
I hope you will the below worthy of the indulgence

As some of you already know, I spend most of the second half of 2000
working on a documentary on AIDS in Zimbabwe; specifically children
left orphaned by the disease. Shooting and editing the film was a
powerful experience, and I am proud to say that some good measure of
what I saw and felt made its way into the final cut.

This Monday Time magazine will be running a cover story on AIDS in
Africa, and time.com will be running complimentary coverage starting
later this afternoon. Over the past few days, we've been putting
together a small Web site for "A Generation of Hope" that will be
linked from time.com. It is our hope that this mention on time.com
will drive a high volume of traffic to the generation Web site.

I would like to ask all of you to take a couple of minutes to visit:

http://gbgm-umc.org/aidschildren/index.html

These children tell a powerful story of hope and courage and I think
you will find your visit worthwhile. I would also ask that you pass
this URL on to your friends and colleagues.

Sincerely,

David Ryan
