Greetings from Atlanta: City of Peace,
Hello Clay,
Here is a powerful quote from Atlanta's official part-time resident, His Holiness the Dalai Lama (our city's#3 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate). In Centennial Olympic Park, Oct. 2007 he substantiated Atlanta greatest asset. Our city's "Gandhi-King Global Peace Connection" welcomes your help to develop it. He proclaimed:

"Atlanta has a great significance,
and it is a great joy for me to
be with you today,
the citizens of Atlanta...
Visionaries such as Mahatma Gandhi
and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
have shown us that successful changes
can be brought about nonviolently.
I believe that, at the basic human level,
most of us wish to be peaceful.
Deep down, we desire constructive,
fruitful growth and dislike destruction."
--- His Holiness The Dalai Lama (Oct. '07)
