Just to introduce myself, my n...Dear Powderfinger,<br /><br />Just to introduce myself, my name's Ellie and I'm writing on behalf of the Global Peace Index (GPI).<br /><br />First of all we would like to sincerely thank you for previously including the GPI in your blog in the past.<br /><br />As you'll be aware, the GPI is a ground-breaking piece of research in the study of peace, which not only ranks nations by their peacefulness but also seeks to identify the drivers of peace. Now in its fourth year, the Index is produced by the Institute for Economics and Peace, a global think tank dedicated to the research and education of the relationship between economic development, business and peace. It is collated and calculated by the Economist Intelligence Unit.<br /><br />We're getting in touch to alert you to the fact that the next Global Peace Index will be launched on June 8th 2010. We'll be providing you with further information closer to the time - unless you tell us that you'd rather not hear from us again - but thought you might appreciate the heads-up in the meantime.<br /><br />You might want to join us on Facebook too:<br /><br />http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Global-Peace-Index/92288319748?ref=ts<br /><br />and follow us on Twitter<br /><br />http://twitter.com/GlobPeaceIndex<br /><br />If you've got any thought or questions about the Index, our methodology, or our organisation, please get in touch. We hope you find our research interesting and informative, and look forward to sharing this year's findings with you in a few weeks' time.<br /><br />Best Wishes,<br /><br />Ellie Kirby - updates@visionofhumanity.orgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3184575347466163757.post-35883527062349674542009-08-16T13:32:06.855-05:002009-08-16T13:32:06.855-05:00Sir,
I understand the protest, and I sympathize...Sir,<br /><br /> I understand the protest, and I sympathize with your distress. The tale may indeed be perverse and the future dark and harrowing, but both of us know that our country is in serious, serious trouble. And we are watching what humanity there is just drain away.<br /><br /> Come to think of it, I protest too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00111660094586126379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3184575347466163757.post-12819817107890783732009-08-16T07:46:55.046-05:002009-08-16T07:46:55.046-05:00We protest!
