A message to all members of GlobalRisk community

"Every wrong attempt described is another Step Forward... “T.A.Edison


 


Dear GlobalRisk community member,


This is a very special issue of our Highlights as we surpassed 1000 members in just few months of our 
existence. We congratulate Andrejus Moksinas from Lithuania who became our 1000th member. As our price we would like to feature Andrejus on our main page and would like to ask him to share with us some interesting material or a story about his work, plans or just any question he might have.


Our media advisor, Milena Rodban has issued professional press releases about our community 
surpassing 1000 members. These press releases have been seen by hundreds of 
people on the Internet and you can see it here: http://prlog.org/10793227   


We also congratulate our Spanish members for the victory of their national soccer team in the World Cup, and as usual we weep together 
with Dutch who did not make it to the champions again.


By the way if you've got a frog for a picture, hurry up and replace it!
