This is not strictly on the topic of e-gold and I don't hold high hopes for it's success, but I may have a way to bring worldwide media exposure to e-gold however I need the widespread help of e-gold account holders. I have been trying for months to organise sponsorship for an entry in the London to Sydney air race next year <www.airrace.com.au>. Large corporations just don't want to know and I am running out of time to sort something out. (Some of the companies not interested are: IBM, Nike, AMD and Virgin) If I could raise part of the funds I need from e-gold members it would not only help with raising the rest of the money but I would paint the airplane I will fly with e-gold logos and put logos on the flying suits of myself and my co-pilot. The event will receive global TV coverage and be the subject of a TV documentary afterwards. The 7 network is covering it in Australia and will make the documentary. The total cost may be as high as A$204,000 (US$110,160) but will probably be about A$170,000 (US$91,800). This includes the purchase of the airplane for the race and the entry fee of A$53,000 (US$28,620). So if anyone out there wants to make a contribution it will be much appreciated. I won't be able to recognise all contributors individually, unless the response is very small, but e-gold will get some good publicity. There is also the fact that I will receive much more media attention than many other entrants because I am legally blind. Check out my web site: <www.iinet.net.au/~biggles/> I have nothing on my web site about this yet because I have been keeping it quiet until now. I will however keep an online journal, photo album and log book of my journey. Also, I know there was a script you could put on a web page to let people see your account balance. If anyone has it please e-mail it to me and I will put up a page with it so everyone can see the progress, or lack of.(please send it soon, I will be leaving for the Paralympics in 4 days and will have no access to a computer until Nov 4. If I get it, the page will be at <www.iinet.net.au/~biggles/e-gold.htm>) Contributions of any amount will help. Kingsley Bugarin Account 125585.
