Hi Martine,

One of my greatest pleasure in life is getting a reply to a email of mine! Thanks for replying.

I wont be in Europe, unfortunately... I will be honest, I'm a poor elementary school English teacher. I just started EDUIT practically out of my families rice paddies here in Japan where I live... they don't have a garage. I'm busy looking to identify our stakeholders, partners and strategic partners. I am looking to ID companies that want to align themselves with EDUIT vision of a flattened global learning environment... Its not easy. If you know of n1 who would be interested in becoming stakeholders I would be glad to chat with them. You know people... I have a simple solution and together we can do it.

I am very interested in aligning EDUIT with a membership association... We are looking at EDUCAUSE.org... but I think you guys would be a better fit. We are already too US centric. I think we could offer a rather unique and sexy member pull. Join and $1 goes towards EDUIT GEM Initiative. I think the idea would have a lot of mileage and member appeal since we are fed up with education the way it is currently run. By becoming a member you are helping to Angils and EDUIT flatten global learning... not a bad investment! Watch my presentation... its a bit over the top, but maybe you'll get it. If you don't its my fault. How we will do it is actually very simple. Pulling the pieces together, on the other hand, will take some doing and I will need help from folks like you.

We will be holding our first annual invitation only GEM Conference in the fall 2009 where we will showcase our global education solution beta and draft and adopt the EDUIT GEM Charter--we are working with Marshall Islands as a possible venue. Why not be partners--you can run organize the conference (take credit for it) and play a strategic role in helping to establish EDUIT and its 21 century The Global Education Movement. Another guy had a similar vision -- Pierre de Coubertin, born in 1863... he had a vision for sports event to unite the world and promote peace and kinship... he founded the Olympics. EDUIT looks to be no different. It will help to put global education on track by putting it in the hands of those that know how to fix the problems and make it fun, enjoyable, accessible and available to all regardless of their social economic background... will you help? Or do i need to become a member first ;)

With great appreciation,

Michael
