<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Dear all,</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">It's pretty cold and icy here, so as customary I attend the U.N. by webcast and I hope you might wish to also.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">*Respectful Interfaces* customarily makes posters of "people assembling," and what a fine opportunity for us worldwide to participate via the webcast at <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://www.un.org/webcast/index.asp" target="_blank">
http://www.un.org/webcast/index.asp</a> (first Channel) in just a few minutes. I find that backing away from the computer and showing some of my "things" as well as close in images "as if we are there yields some joyous "footage"; And if you need to clear (save) what's on your media card, or just use a traditional camera and get image to us, this important Conference is from 10am to 1pm (New York TIme). That's just over 15 minutes from now here in New York.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Though I'm not sure about your access, the growing interest in participation via online bridging as well as in person is and has been already well in place in our 'time'. So if you do have 'time', please participate if possible and do send on a text description, photo, or other to
<a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="mailto:resepctful_interfaces@att.net" target="_blank">resepctful_interfaces@att.net</a> and we will do a commemorative group poster. You might even want to swivel the camera and capture your image; doubtless everyone will be very creative.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Motivation is that while many are still barred by the digital divides which concern us, those of us linked-in can give a 'step-up' to others by honoring the glories of LINKS (of all sorts) and showing our good will towards each other. So I hope you have time, and we can collaborate on future multistakeholder events as well - local, natioinal, regional, global. All ideas so very welcome,
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">And sending best wishes, LDMF.</font></div>
