What a total crock of bull. I have never sat through such NWO BS in my
life. We (America) need to keep our missiles pointed straight at Russia
and China more now than ever before. I know this much. If they nuke us I
want to know while I'm dying that atleast we got some off and they are ON
THEIR WAY  straight up Red Square and Moscow. Wow, would you look at
that. I said more with less than a hundred words than oh Global Boy said
with a thousand.

Sorry, I just hate global thinking. Why? Because that is how Clinton and
Gore think. And that's a good enough reason for me.

From: Peace Through Reason,
Peace Park Antinuclear Vigil (White House)
To:  Global Peace Walk2000

We support the Global Peace Walk Project and thank Reverend Yusen
Yamato
and David Crockett Williams for their prayer walk from California to
the
White House and United Nations, seeking and teaching the global
abolition
of nuclear weapons -- testing, wastes, and other dangers.

We agree that it adds strength to the nuclear abolition movement to
unite
all survival issues together under a prayer for "Global Peace Now!"
We
also support the idea of a Global Peace and Environment Platform for
candidates in the Year 2000 U.S. National elections.

The world we all live in is the product of ideas, individual and
collective.
 For too long humanity's time, energy, "money," have been funneled
into
rotten ideas.  This situation can be changed if we spend our energy
and
resources on PRACTICAL concepts, and transform the deadly
"military-industrial complex" President Eisenhower warned about into
self-sustaining, environment- and neighbor-friendly industries.  (See
http://prop1.org/convert/convpro.htm.)

We are very encouraged that DC Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton
has
again introduced into Congress HR-2545, the Nuclear Disarmament and
Economic Conversion Act of 1999, which calls on the U.S. to commit to
global nuclear disarmament, and to redirect weapons funding to
peaceful
purposes such as housing, health care, education, food, and
environmental
restoration.  See http://prop1.org/prop1/hr2545.htm.  This bill was
first
submitted, in 1994, as the result of a successful Washington, DC
ballot
initiative (#37, 1993), which asked the mayor to advise our
Congresswoman
that the majority of the voters wanted her to introduce it.

We hope that Global Peace Walk2000 will help alert the people in
America
and around the world to this great opportunity, which only needs
adequate
public support to be made into law in the U.S. ... and thence around
the
world.  (See suggestions, and text of bill, below.)

Your efforts can be very helpful.  Thank you for carrying and sharing
the
idea of eliminating nuclear weapons while walking to Washington DC.

We'd certainly like to see the materialization of your vision of
gathering
over a million people around the Washington Monument on October 12,
2000;
let us know what we can do to help.  We'll be waiting to welcome you
when
you arrive on October 9, 2000.  We'll forward your appeal to the Mayor
 and
 City Council for a proclamation that Washington DC should be a
Global
Peace Zone.

Meanwhile, send us press clippings and commentary about your walk
across
the country, and we'll help by posting updates on our website
(http://prop1.org), and to our extensive list of email subscribers.
We'll
also help you and other subscribers to keep up to date on what's
happening,
good and bad, on our mother, Earth. See

  WHAT YOU CAN DO
To Help Rid the World of Nuclear Weapons

   WORLD CITIZENS
(this means EVERYBODY!):

* Write the United Nations Ambassadors for all countries with nuclear
weapons (Britain, China, France, Israel, India, Pakistan, Russia,
United
States) and those suspected of wanting nuclear weapons (such as North
Korea, Iraq, Iran). Write c/o U.N. Plaza, New York, NY 10017, USA, and
say,
"Please promise, and use your influence to convince all nuclear powers
to
publicly promise, 'YES, we will eliminate all our nuclear weapons, if
everyone
else does.' Don't quit until the job is done!"

* Call (202-225-3121) AND write Members of the U.S. House of
Representatives (Washington, DC 20015); ask them to release HR-2545,
the
"Nuclear Disarmament and Economic Conversion Act," to the full House
of
Representatives for debate and vote.

Please tell the U.S. House of Representatives "Armed  Services" and
"International Relations" Committees  that it's undemocratic to
withhold
this important legislation from the rest of their colleagues. (You
can
write c/o U.S. House of Representatives, Washington, DC 20515, USA --
